Album Notes

With their first internet number one hit, the duo from Bournemouth, UK, has landed on steady ground as the alternative pop/rock band, Silvertrain.
Known for their acclaimed track, "Angel by My Side", the duo are stepping outside familiar territory and peeking inside a new industry made just for them and their talent.
And while most would ascertain that a band name with such depth would imply a harder edge to their music; the basis for it is simply a collective regard for the Rolling Stones, despite the genre differences and, I'm assuming, the trademark lips.
Silvertrain began a little more than ten years ago by two work colleagues (John and Richie) with a love for creating - the poet and the composer - and a common drive; the death of a loved one.
The two are self-taught with a sound reflecting the likes of Wide Mouth Mason and vocals similar to Donnie Van Zant of 38 Special - a marketable combination.
Their music creates a relaxed, yet captivating sentiment, almost reminiscent of the mid-nineties.
It is difficult to find a song by Silvertrain that doesn't contain all of the essential elements of enjoyment.
The musicality and the vocal range are steady, but what is produced is intense experience throughout years of practice and the lives they live.
Upon listening to each track, a biography in itself is created - you can almost dictate an unwritten book into the lives of these men.
The production quality is superb and suggests this duo have aspirations outside of Bournemouth.
Will Silvertrain be knocking at the door of a stadium by you?
It seems unrealistic to think they'll be a local group for long.
