Silas

About Me

The roots of Silas were planted in January of 2003 under the name of Red Letter. The band was started by Silas’ current members Jonathan and Sam along with former guitarist Jeremy and former drummer Daniel. After playing at our high school and other local venues for about a year and a half we ended up stealing our current drummer, Will, from a high school rival band called 3HTheory.With Will as our new drummer, we started to hit the local music scene harder and started playing out of state. We later changed our name to Silas in 2004, and in 2005 we released a full length album called Before Your Eyes. Later that year Jeremy left the band.After Jeremy left the band, we decided that we wanted to get away from the post hardcore scene, remain a 3-piece, and move into more melodic music.Since then we’ve continued to write new music and play anywhere and everywhere we can. Expect to see a new album called The Overlap available for sale year end 2007.

"The Sarcasm of an Addict" lyrics

It's funny how I'm hiding,it's funny how I'm lying.The reason for this comedy is found through my sick sense of humor.Just hide it from her.What's so funny about this scowl and this wash-machine worn ...
