Silverstein release new music video for ‘Bankrupt’

SILVERSTEIN have released a brand new music video!

The new video, for the track Bankrupt, is the band’s latest stand alone single. The single was written and recorded during the COVID-19 lockdown after their 20th anniversary tour was cancelled due to the pandemic.

Throughout the lockdown, SILVERSTEIN not only spent their time writing and recording, but also fought to deliver a series of livestreams for fans globally who were going to be missing them celebrate their two-decade history as a band.

Guitarist and songwriter Paul Marc explains, “I don’t know how to feel anything but rage anymore. The rich are getting richer and poor are getting poorer. Wages are stagnant, tuition costs are rising, jobs are being automated/off-shored, costs of a home are laughable in most major cities. The walls feel like they’re closing in and escape is starting to feel impossible. Two-faced leaders and greedy elected officials line their pockets while stripping funding for the programs that we actually need. What are we supposed to do now? Looking out for one another on a community level is good, but changing a crooked system is better.”
