MUSIC: Silvertide's LONE ALBUM is a KILLER! (One of the best of the early 2000s!)


On episode #283 of Coolest Alive, Jesse dives into the blistering, riff-heavy world of Silvertide’s one and only full-length album, Show and Tell, the 2004 debut from a bunch of Philadelphia kids who channeled pure ’70s sleaze and swagger into early-2000s hard rock gold. Packed with gritty hooks, arena-sized choruses, and that raw, reckless energy that made tracks like “Ain’t Comin’ Home” instant classics, it’s a criminally underrated record that should’ve launched them into the stratosphere but still rips just as hard today.
