Taking their cues from the taut rhythms and urgent drive of late 70s punk and the discordant, unpredictable freak-outs of NYC no wave, they craft a signature sound spiked with triple guitar riffs, a motorik rhythm section and on-the-pulse lyrics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDebut album Fad represents the sound of a band trying to make sense of a noisy and disjointed world - one that competes for your attention at every turn. For them, it has come to be a symbol of what it feels like to try and absorb the world through both fleeting moments in front of screens, and prolonged obsessive periods filled with focus. They pull apart pop-culture in search of new meaning, whether it’s a nod to The Simpsons (\u003ci\u003eFad 95\u003c\/i\u003e), imagining a lost John Hughes film (\u003ci\u003eKlub Silberrücken\u003c\/i\u003e), spiralling downwards into youtube deep-dives (\u003ci\u003ePink Tide\u003c\/i\u003e), or making sense of youth culture through The Urban Dictionary (\u003ci\u003eGrinning At The Lid\u003c\/i\u003e). Much in the same way that modern life can be defined by its unpredictability, Silverbacks colourful, vivid and exuberant songs dismantle their source material and end up in places that you don’t think they will.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt can be heard in the spidering guitar lines of opening track\u003ci\u003e Dunkirk\u003c\/i\u003e, or \u003ci\u003ePink Tide’s\u003c\/i\u003e Thin Lizzy-aping riffery, \u003ci\u003eFad 95’s\u003c\/i\u003e overt Pavement influence, \u003ci\u003eUp The Nurses\u003c\/i\u003e’ Blondie injection or\u003ci\u003e Last Orders’ \u003c\/i\u003eThe Fall-inspired tale of escapism. \u003ci\u003eGrinning At The Lid’s \u003c\/i\u003ehuge gang vocal chorus even recalls \u003ci\u003eNew Fellas\u003c\/i\u003e-era The Cribs.
