Birmingham four-piece The Silver Lines recently released the single ‘Cast Away’ via ADR Records. It follows the riff-tastic ‘Blow Dry’, can ‘Cast Away’ match its power?

Frontman Dan Ravenscroft puts in a vocal delivery that puts him on the map! Pulling from Frank Turner’s desperation, Jonathan Richman’s drawl, and a Joey Ramone or Peter Hayes (BRMC) coolness, Ravenscroft puts in a career-best performance.
Lyrically, the band tackle feeling alone in a foreign land. Through frontman Dan, they build tension and a sense of isolation that could lead to darker realms. In contrast, Joe’s guitars serve the freeing nature of anonymity in a big city. His sonic races away at every opportunity, providing rock ‘n’ roll with its new dos of hedonism.
It‘s five years since their debut single, the direct underground ‘Roamer’; The Silver Lines now attack from all angles. They play with form, texture, and vocal cadence. They’re now a creative force to be reckoned with.
