Few bands on their 22nd lap around the scene could claim to be in “just getting started” mode as much as punk stalwarts Silverstein. The forthcoming release of their tenth studio album, Misery Made Me on May 6th via UNFD finds the group spring-boarding off the heights they’ve reached over the past handful of years. The album’s first single, Ultraviolet, dives deep into feelings of desperation, describing the utter helplessness of losing control to anxiety.

“Ultraviolet” is about feeling powerless and under the control of the chemicals in your brain. Ultraviolet light itself being invisible felt like the right way to describe this notion. To get lost in this unseeable thing. UV also causes physical damage to our skin, so it serves as a sort of “proof” that something invisible like anxiety can hurt us.” (guitarist Paul Marc Rousseau)
