Silverchair Go Straight

Sydney, AU. (Top40 Charts/ EMI MUSIC Australia) - Silverchair's first new single release since 2003 finally hits Australian music stores this week.

The band's epic song, 'Straight Lines', is already No 1 on ARIA's digital chart but it now is available as a CD single that features 3 special bonus tracks. The first of them is 'All Across The World' (also the closing track from the band's forthcoming album) and it's already enjoying high rotation on Triple J. Then there's the non-album bonus track 'Sleep All Day' plus a collector's version of the Midnight Oil classic 'Don't Wanna Be The One', live from Sydney's Homebake Festival. The video for "Straight Lines" is also available digitally everywhere from now.

The trio's eagerly anticipated 'Young Modern' album is now 3 weeks away from its street date, Saturday March 31. There will be two formats for the release. The cheaper Standard Edition will contain one audio disc and normal jewel case packaging. The Special Edition will be a limited release. It will contain the same audio disc plus a bonus DVD which includes "The Making Of Young Modern" documentary and "Straight Lines" video and it will be packaged in a deluxe fold out digipack.

From tomorrow, Tuesday March 13, you will be able to pre-order 'Young Modern' digitally with iTunes Australia for a limited time only. The special digital edition of the album will also feature "The Making Of Young Modern" video, "Straight Lines" video, PDF booklet and an exclusive bonus track called "English Garden" which features a special guest vocal by the legendary Judith Durham from The Seekers.
