Recording and releaseIn 1993, in an effort to get a record deal, the band decided to record a full-length album, which was done from December 26, 1993, to January 1, 1994; the album included five songs from Moist's 1993 independently released cassette. The album was titled Silver and released independently on February 8, 1994. It was distributed by EMI Music Publishing Canada, whom the band had signed with in 1993. By March 1994, the band signed with EMI Music Canada and the label relaunched the album in April.[3] Reception
AllMusic's James Chrispell wrote that "Moist's music can be described as an aural equivalent to the great northern rain forests of British Columbia" and that "Dark, angry songs show the influence absorbed from places south of their border, namely Seattle, but Silver is no copy of anyone else's style."[4] Track listing
