KELLY HOGAN (solo, The PPINE VALLEY COSMONAUTS) contributed backing vocals on several tracks and sang the hell out of \"Young,\" an outsized ballad that has no precise equivalent in the band's catalog. And Matt Kadane (BEDHEAD, The NEW YEAR) became the band's quasi-official keyboardist, troubling the waters with an organ bed here, a glowing piano line there, a greasy clavinet solo on \"White Lightning.\" Still, Cohen, Midgett, and drummer Michael Dahlquist (who did get to sing now and then) remained at the core of Italian Platinum. You can hear their damn-everything confidence as individual musicians in the drum fills that stagger through \"Bourbon Beard,\" the NEIL YOUNG-meets-ANDY GILL guitar solo that plays havoc with the chords of \"(I Hope U) Don't Survive,\" or the polluted, swaggering baritone guitar on \"Dirty Air.\" With each record, SILKWORM were committed to pushing harder against what they knew they could do. Symbiosis defined this band, and you're better off hearing for yourself. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTrack Listing:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(I Hope U) Don't Survive \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Old You \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIs She A Sign \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Brain \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBourbon Beard \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLR72 \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Third \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhite Lightning \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirty Air \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYoung \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMoving \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Ram \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Cockfight Of Feelings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Waiting Room Records","offers":[{"title":"Red LP","offer_id":45137784963187,"sku":null,"price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0082\/4315\/0908\/files\/R-13471340-1554835116-9962.jpg?v=1782515244","url":"https:\/\/waitingroomrecords.com\/products\/silkworm-italian-platinum","provider":"Waiting Room Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
