The 3rd release from Glasgow band Silver Haar.

Penned during the first lockdown, “Lost” is an explosive, guitar driven anthem which nods it’s bunnet to band favourites Feeder and Interpol. Tackling the theme of our modern day political nightmare in which our leaders inspire racism and division, the lyrics are attempting to search for our place within it. Ultimately, “Lost” is a show of strength and recognition that, whilst we are caught in the middle, we can still make a difference...all set to a disco beat, so get on your dancing shoes!

Lost

Life is Natural

This is a song about having so much mounting frustration with what you have to accomplish that you need to take a time out.

Ron Snyder - THE PLACE

Lights Out lays down the mission statement straight out the gate. The guitars shimmer plangently in the intro, only to be shot forward suddenly by the arrival of a driving rhythm section and a Robert Smith-esque lead guitar line that counterpoints beautifully with synthesised strings bearing a trace of The Queen Is Dead era Smiths. These “simple lines intertwining” (to quote Spinal Tap’s Nigel Tufnell) explode the whole thing into an epic widescreen Technicolor landscape, though probably that of a Douglas Sirk melodrama rather than a John Ford adventure picture. A strong vocal melody (supported by gorgeous harmonies) pushes us through into a chorus that contradictingly sounds celebratory despite the words we’re hearing - “Lights Out/We’ll never be free.” Are we entrapped by dead-end careers, a romance that’s long lost its spark, some other form of subjugation or all of the above? The lyrics are elliptical enough to deny a solid answer, but one thing’s for sure, whatever’s keeping us in chains is likely of our own making and it’s rarely sounded so joyous.

Bringing to mind the tainted sparkle of The Cure alongside the Scottish brogue of modern contemporaries such as Fatherson and Biffy Clyro, Silver Haar blend shimmering guitar melodies with anthemic vocals and hooks which will stick in your head for days. 
2021 was an amazing debut year for the band, starting with the release of their first EP “Lights Out” in July which was nominated for EP of the year by The Weekender Magazine.
 Title track and debut single “Lights Out” featured on Deliberator Records’ “The Sound of Today” compilation CD and received a tonne of airplay including from Jim Gellatly on Amazing Radio, Zoe Macleod on Islington Radio alongside a host of local and national radio stations and podcasts. 
The band are now putting the finishing touches to their debut album, set to be released by Glasgow’s Deliberator Records. The band were also an integral part of an incredible team of new artists creating the Mind Aid 2021 single - all proceeds going to Tiny Changes to support mental health in memory of Frightened Rabbit singer Scott Hutchison. 
 
2022 has already seen 2 brand new singles and “Live” is released on July 1st which showcases the impressive energy and musicianship of the group. With CD’s already sold internationally as wide as Sweden and the USA and, with a host of explosive live shows booked across the UK, 2022 is set to be a breakthrough year for Silver Haar.
