Album Notes

“If Muddy Waters and Metallica had a baby, and that baby had sex with Pearl Jam, and then their baby grew up listening to the Clash, that's what we sound like.” That is an official statement put out by Woodbridge based Silvertongue describing their sound. The truly surprising part is that this lofty analogy is pretty accurate.
While the band has only been in existance for around a year and a half, they have spent the last seven months working tirelessly to independently produce a full length record of 14 tracks. They accomplished all of this despite losing their drummer nearly five months ago.

The recently finished Eidolon gives listeners a truly entertaining experince with songs ranging from “In Line” featuring the finger blistering solos of guitarist Nathan Biglin, to the blues-metal train that is “Hate that Crow”. Silvertongue also brings a good number of socially minded tracks to the table including “Greed” which deals with the loss of a friend to drug and alcohol abuse.

Marching out of the dark timbers of the suburbia hell that is Woodbridge, Virginia, Silvertongue is determined to set themselves apart from the cookie cutter screamo metal, and the thoughtless synthesized pop that clutters the musical landscape. Drawing on the influences of Muddy Waters, Pearl Jam, Mad Max, and Mudgut, this band of heroes stand ready to alter the ideology of popular music. To put it one way, this is a philosophical coup d'etat for your ears that will put a brash smile in your soul.
