By early 2005, it was time to record a follow up album. The band found a soul mate in producer Cameron Webb, who has recorded bands like Motorhead, Social Distortion, and Ben Folds Five. Perspective plays a key role in Silverstein's new album, "Discovering The Waterfront," it is a central theme in songs that explore self-determination and coping with change. Addiction to negative relationships is another recurrent theme, from the opening track; "Your Sword Versus My Dagger" to "My Heroine," lyricist/vocalist Shane Told is beyond candid as he tells stories of obsession, hopelessness and ultimately redemption. The music is flawlessly executed, with powerful instrumentation and the melodic/raw vocal juxtaposition that Told delivers seamlessly.

With the heavy lifting of recording wrapped up, a video for the first single, "Smile In Your Sleep," was the next step. Settling on a concept paying homage to the board game Clue, they began filming with Marc Ricciardelli in the mansion that served as the set for the hit movie Billy Madison. "The song, 'Smile In Your Sleep,' is a dark song about jealousy, deception and ultimately murder" explains Shane. "Our director came up with the Clue concept and it gave us a chance to have a little fun with the video. Each of us wears the colors of the characters, there are all the weapons, and of course, there is a butler. I think it's going to look great, we can't wait for fans to see it." The video will get major exposure in August, as Silverstein will be part of the Yahoo! Music "Who's Next" program.

After the album and video were completed, Silverstein rocked the first half of Warped Tour, then returned for the Toronto show to tear it up in front of a huge, chaotic crowd of fans in their home town. In August 2005, they will begin a promotional tour of small venues where they will welcome media and fans to perform songs from the new album. They hit the road in direct support of Hawthorne Heights this fall.
