Canadian Rock band Silverstein have shared their new single “Don’t Let Me Get Too Low” along with a music video which has grave digging as a central metaphor and questions behind who needs saving and who does the saving in our lives. The track hails from the first part of their upcoming album, titled Antibloom.
Front man Shane Told says about the track:
’Don’t Let Me Get Too Low blends our classic sound with our pop-punk and also our hardcore influences. It’s a song that is hard to describe because it does so much in under 3 minutes. The video was a lot of fun to film, we were in the middle of the desert outside Las Vegas and I was digging my own grave with a big smile on my face. Luckily no cops showed up to ask us what we were doing, that might have been hard to explain.
Guitarist Paul Marc Rousseau adds:
Sometimes the only person that can save you from yourself is… yourself? That’s what the lyrics say, anyway. If you watch the video, it’s actually the opposite. Either way, though, we had a great time making this song. Some of it came to us quickly, but a few parts kicked our ass for a while. I lowkey kind of love when the whole room is just grinding out like 10 seconds of music for 2 hours, though. It feels like the most important thing in the world but also so absurd at the same time. That’s the thing with writing something this short: you have to make sure every second serves a purpose, and I think we accomplished that here. Zero wasted seconds. 100% banger.
“Don’t Let Me Get Too Low” is taken from the band’s forthcoming album Antibloom, the first part of their double album Antibloom / Pink Moon. The records were written in the deserts of Joshua Tree and will see the first will see its release on February 21st, 2025 via UNFD, with Pink Moon to follow later in the year.
