The Silverbacks very own debut EP.

Recorded in 2 evening sessions over August/September 2010 at Oxygen Rooms, Birmingham.

The instrumentals are live takes of the band in flow (all but one captured first time), and the vocals were freestyled over the band's recorded beats at the next session (no kidding, a majority of the rapping you hear is ENTIRELY IMPROVISED... not to mention 100% of the singing). The best bits were chopped together and the sound mixed at the leisure of the Silverbacks (and you best believe we're on gorilla time...) to give you this audio experience.

We hope you enjoy it. The band are on a great-ape hiatus til at least June. Who knows, if we see some love for these tunes, Uncle Silverback and Kid Macaque might just knuckle-walk back from their respective international migrations and put on a show...

All that remains to be said is,
"CHIMPANPEACE AND BABOONBLESSINGZ TO ONE & ALL!"
With Love,
The Silverbacks.

p.s. Props to Adanté and the Soul Food crew for the vocal hook and backing vox in 'Woo York State of Live'. These were hijacked from an unfinished alternative version of the track recorded with the Soul Food family– a beautiful and lush gospel feel, can't wait to get you guys & girls back in the booth and finish it! THANK YOU
