    For Everyone Who Was Obsessed With Silverchair Growing Up

    Reunion? Please?

    In the early '90s a blessing occurred: a young group of teens formed a band and performed under the name of Silverchair*.

    Thus Frogstomp was born, in all its grungy glory and spurred the hit songs "Tomorrow" and "Israel's Son".

    It (obviously) didn't end there. The band followed up with the incredible 1997 album Freak Show...

    Remember the song "Freak" that resonated with every single angsty teen feeling you ever had?

    OF COURSE YOU DO!!

    And then. THEN, there was Neon Ballroom in 1999.

    There was the killer "Anthem for the Year 2000”...

    Who could ever forget that video clip?

    ...the brutal lyrical honesty in "Ana's Song”...

    And of course the beautifully melodic "Miss You Love".

    A few years later came Diorama and Silverchair took on a new, more mature sound.

    How could you NOT love "The Greatest View"?

    And "Without You" was an amazing example of how far the band had come musically since their earlier years.

    After a hiatus, the band came back to us, their loving fans, with the release of Young Modern in 2007.

    "Straight Lines" was the first single released and let's be honest... even if you didn't love it to start with, it grew on you until you realised it is a really fucking good song.

    Sure, "If You Keep Losing Sleep" was a bit of a mindfuck, but that musical experimentation proved Silverchair truly was a band like no other.

    Young Modern was also Silverchair's fifth consecutive album to hit number one on the Aria charts, making them the first band to accomplish this feat in Australia.

    It's now been a tragic eight years since the last album release from this truly epic band.

    But still, we can't help asking - reunion tour? Please Silverchair?
