Rescue is the fifth studio album by the Canadian post-hardcore band Silverstein. It was released on 26 April 2011,[4] the first full length album to be released through Hopeless Records. It is their last release to feature guitarist Neil Boshart.

Style

The album continues their style heard on A Shipwreck in the Sand. It has some very heavy songs similar to that album along with some songs featuring a traditional emo style similar to their early records. It also has some influences from melodic metalcore.

Background information

Rescue contains two songs from the band's previously released EP album Transitions and a music video has already been released for the song "Sacrifice". On February 5, 2011 the band played a free show in Toronto, with Robby Starbuck filming the event for a music video for the song "The Artist", released on March 28. Frontman, Shane Told revealed that a video will also be released for the song "Burning Hearts".[5] Told also announced that there will be a 7" vinyl release for "The Artist" on their Record Store Day and it will have 3 exclusive covers as B-sides[6] along with there being an iTunes exclusive track for the album as well.[7]

The material on Rescue was described by Told as "a cross between Discovering and Shipwreck".[8][9]
