Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Silverstein is a five-piece post-hardcore band, formed out of Burlington, Ontario in the year 2000. Their band name is a reference to the children's author Shel Silverstein, whose works the band members had grown up reading. Since their formation, the band has released nine studio albums, four EP's, eight singles, 20 music videos, a compilation album and a live DVD/CD. The band is largely a product of the surge of the emo genre through the mid-2000s, taking stylistic influences from the screamo, indie rock, and hardcore punk genres. Their sophomore album Discovering the Waterfront received critical acclaim and launched the band into mainstream popularity, after peaking at No. 34 on the Billboard 200 charts and being nominated for a Juno Award.Their lineup has largely remained unchanged through the 16 years the band has been together, led by frontman vocalist Shane Told, rhythm guitarist Josh Bradford, bassist Billy Hamilton, and percussionist Paul Koehler. Their current lead guitarist, Paul Marc Rosseau, joined the band in 2012 after the firing of the band's longtime guitarist Neil Boshart.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })

Concept Album: Silverstein has three concept albums. A Shipwreck in the Sand tells the story of a man who realizes his wife has been cheating on him with his best friend. Upon discovering that his wife plans to leave him, he confronts his best friend before setting his partner's house on fire out of spite. However, upon realizing that he still loves them, he immediately rushes in to rescue his wife and their six-year-old daughter. His wife presses charges upon him by accusation of insanity and takes him to court, where the protagonist loses custody of his daughter. However, with a lack of evidence to support that the protagonist had indeed burnt down the house, the protagonist is released until the next day. Faced with the prospect of living without his family and a lengthy prison sentence if the verdict comes out guilty, the protagonist takes his own life in a motel room.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_1'); })

Attending Your Own Funeral: As the counterpart to the song "Stand Amid the Roar" on This is How the Wind Shifts, this song has the ghost of the murder victim detailing the scenes of their own funeral, confused and afraid.
