Why did no-one I know ever say "Holy sh!t, go see Silverchair live - they are awesome!". HUGE REGRETS.

[@notanotherjamesmurphy5574]

I was thinking that! I was thinking “2005? I woulda been into this in 2005”

[@Ljtheog12]

I was lucky enough to see them on the Diorama tour. I cannot describe how bloody amazing they sounded. It was a magical night of music and love that I’ll remember forever.

Ben and Chris are still mates, it's just Daniel who needs convincing

[@wyattjackson977]

I saw an interview with Daniel kinda recently and he said silverchair will never be again. Him rising to fame at such a young age really messed him up mentally and physically, and the thought of performing with them again freaks him out and gives him anxiety which I didn’t understand years ago, but now as somebody who has dismissed anxiety my whole life, that now has anxiety, I totally understand where he’s coming from. Not fame and all that obviously, but I used to laugh at people who said they had anxiety, and I was like quit being such a p***y and get over it. But now I am one of those people I used to laugh at. Obviously I try to fight it and hide it as much as I can but it comes through sometimes and even with medicines and stuff you can’t stop it. It’s real y’all, keep your mental health in check for real.

[@jenbunny1984]

I totally understand! I have social anxiety and just always thought I was an introvert. I use to laugh at people when they mention anxiety-when I was younger. However, I get it now and I will be 40 this year!

Daniel Johns can't honestly say that he has this much fun singing pop music. I really hope he comes back around eventually.

[@user-sb8zw4mh9u]

Midway47 I actually enjoy Daniel’s new stuff but I still miss silverchair. Watching old videos and hearing the crowd cheer as soon as they come on, like how could you turn away from that? I truly believe they will be back but maybe not for a while, I just think they need to do what they’re doing now before coming back, I know Daniel has said he can’t see it happening but things change. I suppose it just has to happen when it feels right. I never saw them live and I’m gutted so maybe that’s why I’m so hopeful they’ll come back haha

[@birgitvonderburg2097]

He's a huge introvert though!

[@BrandonR93]

Coming from a musician who has played Silverchair's entire catalog almost every day! Its impossible for me to believe he doesnt have fun playing these songs. I have the most fun playing a SC cover then any other band. I understand he doesn't want to do the same thing forever but Silverchair has fans he should at least WANT to do like a one off tour every couple years for the fans

[@seanmack4552]

Never going to happen watch his latest interview on The Project with Carrie, he’s a broken man these days and seems and he tried reaching out to the boys and got nothing…..one of them seems to treat him like crap also

[@rockerman8832]

@@seanmack4552 Ben is the problem I think, Ben doesn’t get along with Daniel, Daniel wanted Ben and Chris to play on the futurenever record, Idk about Chris, but Ben said no, I think that daniel wanted to make amends and be friends again and Ben didn’t want to, I think it’s a shame, I just wish they could be friends again, life is way too short

I always loved that song. The guitar sound is very reminiscent of Kim Thayil of Soundgarden, whilst still sounding fresh and original.

@DanielJohnsHQ Emotion Sickness is One of the Greatest Rock Songs of the Last 25 Years. Perhaps not a commercial success, but let's be Honest we skip commercials Nowadays anyways. The integration of Orchestration is a Demonstration of Determination to Create the Best Sonic Art form possible when partnered with the Power of Aggression found in the Guitar, Drums and Bass. The Honesty of Pain made Beautiful with Unique Sonic Wonderment carved these songs into the very hearts, minds and spirit of those fortunate to Discover such Gems.

Para as pessoas que criticam o Daniel, deixem o viver, APENAS! Não importa o que ele faça de sua carreira, ele já contribuiu o bastante para o cenário musical. Eu não sei os que reclamam têm na mente, principalmente os brasileiros, porque somos obrigados à escutar funk até no nosso r@bo, msm que involuntariamente. Então, não IMPORTA! Só em ele está vivo e se permanecer vivo, já é para sermos gratos.

[@maya_ktv]

@@Williamsaje Eu gosto do Daneil Johns, mas acho que ele se perdeu no personagem, além dá pilha e pressão da gravadora durante as gravações dos 3 primeiros álbuns, e aquela coleção de melhore hits sem autorização deles no anos 2000. Teve uma entrevista dele apontando várias críticas a indústria fonográfica. Voltar? Sim, para um show de não sei tantos anos de álbum X, mas pra uma tour ou algo mais elaborado eles não devem voltar tão cedo kkkkk.

[@FlawedCoil82]

Daniel despised his fame and the songs that got them their fans. Luckily, he doesn’t have to worry about that anymore with the twinkledink glitterfunk vomit he excuses as “music” today (and really ever since YOUNG MODERN). He repelled most of them except for the most fickle of Silverchair fans who love Tiny Tim just as much as Alice In Chains.

[@mmsanrio]

@@FlawedCoil82I’m beginning to think he can’t hit the SC range anymore? Or as easily? I’ve read comments that his voice is too low now. I don’t mind a few of his new songs.

[@FlawedCoil82]

@@mmsanrio I would think if his voice was lower he would be better at Silverchair, honestly. All of his newer stuff is so falsetto heavy and he sounds like Tiny Tim on so much of the modern stuff.

[@deadroses19]

Why is he butchering the door

[@FlawedCoil82]

Daniel was already losing it here. I don’t know if there are many things I hate more than when he started doing all those ridiculously goofy falsetto vocals and super-quirky inflections. I think I blame Paul Mac more than anyone for corrupting him beyond repair and making him become fascinated with ugly, off-kilter sounds like buzzing/beeping amps and non-rock guitar abuse from trippy dying amp sound effects (or literally making ear-grating noise by chewing on the strings as he does here during “The Door”….no honest human alive could equate that with actually being a form of “music”). Silverchair was absolutely incredible until he infected Daniel with his cancerous brand of twinkledink glitterfunk “”””””music””””””. YOUNG MODERN completely broke me, as it was the most unforgivable betrayal of a band’s sound I have ever heard a band vomit up. I began to get worried on DIORAMA but at least it was still recognizable as the same band. And sadly, so many fans have very quickly forgotten just how unique and perfect Silverchair truly used to be. It’s absolutely impossible to hear his modern mediocre crap and believe that it is in any conceivable way superior to the highly memorable, infectious hooks, riffs and melodies that he was writing when he still had an immense talent and passion for writing amazing music and didn’t think that rock music is a huge joke. A sad, sad, sad ending to such a promising band.

[@Bennyboy138]

I can understand Daniel at the age he is in the video being bored of playing early Silverchair songs he wrote when he was 15 but that being said millions of people bought their early albums because they're fucking awesome, and I feel Daniel needs to remind himself of that inside of hide away from the fact he made loud rock music. For years I got the feeling Daniel disregarded and felt embarrassed by all his heavy stuff and just sees it as juvenile teen angst, but it all holds its place in time, and every emotion is important whether its happy clappy or whether its anger. Paul Mac changed Silverchair...some may like his influence but I hated it. I love Diorama, I think its a truly stunning album with beautiful arrangements and melodies but also has One Way Mule & The Lever which are heavy AF, and I completely understand Daniels mindset of wanting to write uplifting positive music from coming out of his mental health struggles - but that being said Young Modern is a pile of garbage that I've tried over and over again to like and Paul Macs influence is all over it like a rash. Diorama had Paul Mac on it but it was very much a Daniel Johns album but by Young Modern Paul Mac pretty much became the 4th member of Silverchair, and I also got the feeling in interviews whenever Paul Mac was brought up Ben & Chris looked like they weren't keen on him. As for Daniels most recent stuff...that Ariel Love song is unlistenable

[@FlawedCoil82]

@@Bennyboy138 Very well said! I completely agree with everything. You are correct, when he would play older songs, he played them in a way that was almost int “mocking” them; like he resented that people liked them yet was contractually obligated to play at least a few older songs. I completely lost all faith in him as a musician if he is unable to tell the monumental difference in quality between what he composed in 1994-2002 and then everything else. It really does seem like Paul Mac was the disease, but (like any disease) it took a little time to fully destroy the infected person. I see DIORAMA as the final dying gasps of a once truly gifted musician. Everything that came after was downright shameful. I can’t believe that so many Silverchair fans totally forgot what magic Daniel, Ben and Chris used to create together and instead seem to encourage and embrace this ridiculously over-the-top, mediocre, bizarre crap he does now. Daniel had the perfect voice for what he used to make. But now he has it in his head that he is the lovechild of David Bowie morphed with Bjork and…ugh, it is so terrible and such a horrific waste of a once highly talented musician. I hate it.

[@facehairteeth]

just stumbled across this...never knew they did this. very cool. Maybe when Daniel climbs out of his own ass he will start making good music again. Love Silverchair, not a fan of Daniel without the boys.

[@seanlucas4129]

Hope ur right, but not so sure? He's been doing the weird crap for a while now. I bought the Dissociatives stuff shortly after It came out, and I couldn't even get through it!
