bucket13 Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 Yeah someone mentioned them a LONG time ago but then after that I havent heard of them. I actually was going to ask about them in a post but I guess you've beaten me to it :krider: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyDeeds Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 They're Zeppelin rip offs. They aren't very good. I saw them open for Van Halen last year. Terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maddergascar Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 They're complete slaves to their influences, just like Trivium and a whole host of bands out there with nothing better to do than rehash old concepts and add nothing new. Their vocalist has a good rock n' roll voice, but their lyrics feel awkward, and some times cringe worthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slashs_servant Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 They're complete slaves to their influences<{POST_SNAPBACK}>That is so perfect. You couldn't describe Silvertide any other way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyDeeds Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 (edited) They're complete slaves to their influences<{POST_SNAPBACK}>That is so perfect. You couldn't describe Silvertide any other way.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>I agree. I said they were Zeppelin rip-offs, but this is a better way to put it.That's also why they have been spending the last 5 years OPENING for big bands like Van Halen, Alice Cooper, Velvet Revolver, etc. instead of BEING a big band. And notice that the bands they open for are old bands that have been around for at least 20 years (going back to Guns n' Roses with VR)... they rip off the bands they are influenced by so well that they know that the music will be agreeable enough to appease the crowd for the old bands, but they will never get to that next level because the music is exactly the same... no creativity.
