About Me:
Silverchair is one of the most acclaimed and successful bands in Australian music history. They have had five #1 albums in their homeland. They’ve sold over six million albums and their most recent release – Young Modern – is the fastest seller of their extraordinary career to date. The group’s members were all born in 1979 in the Newcastle surf suburb of Merewether. Singer/guitarist Daniel Johns and drummer Ben Gillies started making music together at primary school and schoolmate Chris Joannou later joined on bass.
They’ve received 39 ARIA Award nominations over the last 12 years and they’ve sold over 6 million albums around the world. Their music has evolved hugely since their teenage years and they’ve grown into critical darlings – a feat that seemed highly unlikely back in the mid-‘90s. To top it all, just a few months back they were the only artist other than U2, Radiohead and The Beatles to have three of their albums make the top 100 most popular Australian CD’s of all time in a big ABC TV poll (Diorama came in just behind Midnight Oil’s classic 10…1 as the most popular Aussie album on the list). But the challenge of living up to this amazing history is not one that Daniel Johns finds daunting. “It took me a long time to realize that the sound Ben, Chris and I make when we play my songs is something special,” says the Silverchair frontman. “I’ve been thinking a lot since we finished the album about were this fits into the other stuff we’ve done. The way I see it the first album was naivety, the second one was anger, the third one was depression and the last one was escapism. Young Modern is all about acceptance. It’s about embracing who we are as band and just really enjoying ourselves because that’s all that really matters. Hopefully listening to this album will make other people feel what we feel when we play these songs together because I’ve finally figured out that that’s a very special feeling.
