Silvery 'ACTION FORCE'/'THE NOD' - now available for download!

After weeks of plays on BBC Radio (Lamacq, Riley, Lamarr, Crowley, Radcliffe & Maconie) and both BBC Radio 1 and BBC 6 Music live sessions, Silvery release their third single ‘Action Force’, taken from their debut album ‘Thunderer & Excelsior’. The double A-side is ‘The Nod’, a new non-album exclusive recording of a live favourite. Its the perfect showcase for their unique and riotous Victoriana inspired sound and a worldview that suggests a heady concoction of British Sea Power through a filter of Sparks, Bowie, XTC and Blur at their punky fairground best. ‘Action Force is my favourite rapid-fire, jerky pop song of the year’ Steve Lamacq (BBC Blog) ‘Tumble-dried Blur melting Sparks into liquid pop’ What’s On The NME Stereo? iTUNES: http://phobos.apple.com%2FWebObjects%2FMZStore.woa%2Fwa%2FviewAlbum%3Fi%3D292640776%26id%3D292640763%26s%3D143441 Napster: http://sms.gb.napster.com%2Fduet%2Fgeneral%2Fhandle_napster_link.html%3Fopcode%3Dswitch%26tab%3Dbrowseartists%26artistid%3D12101512%26albumid%3D12982219%26class%3Dalbum%26artist_id%3D12101512%26album_id%3D12982219%26p%3DDeeplink%26plc%3DGBTool%26c%3DNapsterLink%26t%3DTextLink
