You are invited to watch The Difference Between Love and Hades, the new video by Silverlode and Edel Doherty - a tale of love, tragedy and the seasons. It's short, abrasive and rather green! Ideal for summer, surely!?



Free Audio downloads:
a.
The Difference Between Love And. mp3 - live video audio
b.
Be Still. mp3 - acoustic thrapping version, live

For added excitement, the film and audio were recorded simultaneously, live at Grain Division Studio Leeds 8th February 2008.

Silverlode are presently recording a new EP - due for release Winter 2008/9 -which is set to be our most 'pop' record to date!

Thank you all, see you in Hades.
