Misery Made Me, via UNFD. A weighty, gritty, and more emotional turn from their last pop-influenced 2020 release, A Beautiful Place To Drown, Misery Made Me returns to a place of heavy nostalgic bliss, flanked by themes of personal miseries, and a part declaration that they will not be buried by them. Strong moments like “Die Alone,” speak volumes about the band’s classic massive nature, only dialed to 11. Throwing caution to the wind, Silverstein releases unbridled fury and keeps us on our toes. Fundamentally different from anything previous to it on the record, it shows how undeniably good Silverstein is at instrumental risk and excelling. While the track itself is already a knockout hit, vocalist Andrew Neufeld of Comeback Kid definitely adds an extra spice to the song to keep things interesting.

 

Perhaps one of the heaviest and most magnificent leviathans on Misery Made Me is “The Altar/Mary.” A mashup of genres that pulverizes us colossal instrumental punches that effortlessly drips into infectious electronic dreamscapes, “The Altar/Mary confidently proves that Silverstein is far from out of the race when it comes to delivering the best in the genre. This is just another unique cycle for the torchbearers, and other bands need to catch up.'' (SpillMagazine)
