Show & Tell [Content/Copy-Protected CD, Enhanced, Explicit Lyrics]

This is simply the best new rock n roll album to come out in over a decade. Every single song is great. For those who haven't heard them, think the Black Crowes meets AC/DC or something like that. Every song is catchy and rocks hard. You can't go wrong with this CD.

Although Silvertide is a new band, and nothing substitutes for experience, this band is truely amazing, as is this CD. This CD brings back the old kick-ass style of Rock and Roll from the 80's. None of this goth, death metal that has taken over the Rock community. Silvertide is all about having a great time and it shows through their music. My personal favorite part of this band is their guitarist. I don't remember his name, but he is phenominal. His solos remind me of the good old days with Slash and Eddie Van Halen, but with a great new style.

This CD will go down as one of the greats. Just like, Appetite for Destruction, Back in Black, and Led Zeppelin IV, this CD should be, wait, will be, owned by every rock fan in the world. It's great guitar riffs, amazing vocalist, and rock on attitude will inspire millions.

Every track is great and deserves to be on this CD.

1) AINT COMIN HOME- the perfect opening song to get to know this new band. It starts out with a basic percussion beat, and slowly adds the other instruments plus vocals to create that perfect party on feeling. About 75% done with the song, all the instruments stop and just the vocalist screams out orgasmic noises to bring in the magnificent guitar solo.

2) DEVIL'S DAUGHTER- An interesting guitar solo that quickly grows on you. This song is all bringing up to the choruses as the climax. There is a great little part of the song right before the the chorus that I can't stop singing.

3) SFC (So F*****g Crazy)- This song is simply kick-ass rock and roll. A great beat and nice distortion techniques enable this song to be a great one.

4) CALIFORNIA RAIN- This will be the second single of the album and it is just as good as the others. There is a great guitar lick behind the verses that helps the song rock. Also, the accompanying of other voices behind the main singer's is awesome.

5) BLUE JEANS- The song starts out with a fast worded soft verse that, like the rest of the song, focuses around sex. Then the guitar comes in and blows you away. Another amazing song.

6) MARY JANE- Definitely the hardest song on the album, MARY JANE definitely hits all the spots. The screaming/yelling of the vocalist really portrays his feelings and the back up vocals dont make it any worse. As with every other song, the guitar is unbelievable.

7) HEARTSTRONG- This is the first real slow ballad of off the album and has lots of emotion behind it. It is one of my favorites. You feel like you actually had the experience being sung about.

8) TO SEE WHERE I HIDE- This is my least favorite song on the CD, but it still is great. There is nothing much to say that hasnt been said about the other songs, so I'll leave it at that.

9) YOU WANT IT ALL- More sexual innuendo is featured in this song, and that just adds to the effect. "She wants more and more and more and more," are lyrics frequenting this song.

10) NOTHING STAYS- The second ballad on this album. This is a very relaxing and soothing song. There are also excellent lyrics to accompany the musicianship.

11) FOXHOLE J.C. (Jesus Christ)- This is by far my favorite track on the album. It is very original and has such a good message to it. It starts out with in your face rock and slowly transitions to a slow, piano accompanied, ending. The entire band chants "war, war, what is it for." It is truely inspirational.

If You are still reading, it means you are interested. So what are you doing, go out and buy this fanastic CD!

Every once and a while a band comes along that just seems to have everything. Silvertide is one of those bands. from the 1st track "Ain't comin' home" all the way through "Foxhole J.C." this album is a nonstop attack on your senses. Don't let their age fool you, Silvertide knows classic rock. Having opened for bands like Van Halen they know what it takes to make real music. This is one of the few albums i refuse to skip tracks on, every song on it is filled with pure talent and musical genius. While all the songs are undeniably great, I do have several favorites such as "Devil's daughter", "Blue jeans", and "Mary Jane!" If you remember what good music is supposed to sound like, you'll love this album. Also check out Silvertides EP "American Excess"
