Daniel, Ben & Chris recently got together in a remote studio for a bit over 3 weeks to work on some new songs.
They put down a bunch of ideas & Daniel has since gone away to write and develop the songs further.

LOVELL'S LAGER LAUNCH
Chris Joannou recently took to the stage at the Annandale Hotel in Sydney. Playing bass as part of an awesome supergroup that featured Tim Rogers, Paul Dempsey and Tex Perkins.
This was no impromptu performance! The boys got together to play some classic songs (think Slayer/Black Flag) in support of the Lovell's Lager launch.
A good pal of Silverchair's, Matt Lovell (he's worked on Freak Show, Neon Ballroom & Diorama) was launching his very own lager on the night.
Check out the pics here.
