Quote from Silverstein: “We are finally returning to Australia for a proper headline Tour with very special guests: Real Friends.  For this one, we are bringing our 25 Years of Noise Tour down under which celebrates our entire career & also our new Albums: Antibloom & Pink Moon.  You don’t want to miss it!”

Silverstein enters its 25th year with two full-length albums set for 2025. The band that NME calls “legendary,” and Loudwire placed among the Most Prolific Rock & Metal Artists of the 21st Century, continues to innovate and inspire on forward-thinking records and at crowd-embracing live shows.

Discovering the Waterfront (2005) remains a touchstone classic. A Beautiful Place to Drown (2020) earned a Rock Album of the Year nomination at the Juno Awards. Antibloom (arriving in February) and Pink Moon (August) are stunning reminders of why the group is a vital subcultural force and why Alternative Press readers voted frontman Shane Told among the Five Best Post-Hardcore Vocalists.

Silverstein songs like “My Heroine,” “Smile in Your Sleep,” “The Afterglow,” and “Infinite” are postmodern anthems for a devoted following earned with passionate performances and authentic artistry. As recently as 2024, The Needle Drop called them “emo hardcore legends.” While their 500M+ streams reflect that, Silverstein grew up in a scene where the music and message come first.

Audiences sing and scream along in packed theatres, at festivals, and on tours around the world with groups like Simple Plan, Rise Against, Good Charlotte, Pierce The Veil, Beartooth, and Underoath.

Sam Guaiana (Neck Deep, Holding Absence, Bayside) produced and mixed Antibloom and Pink Moon at Fireside Sound in Joshua Tree, California. The band arrived with 25 demos and chose their 16 favourites. Koehler suggested splitting the music into two albums and turning 2025 into a year-long celebration. This will allow listeners the space to absorb and connect with the songs, which embrace the band’s storied past and postmodern leanings in equal measure, making for diverse experiences.

“We put everything we’ve learned/felt/experienced into this double album,”, the band said in a shared statement, declaring Antibloom and Pink Moon “the absolute collection of our musical style.”

To date, Real Friends has amassed over 150 million streams across 4 EP’s and 3 full-length albums and look forward to continuing their momentum with Blue Hour, their first-ever self-released full length album – The band has even created their own community based record label to release the album under, calling the record label Midwest Trash.
