“Say What You Want” Official Music Video

We have partnered once again with our good friends at Rooster Teeth to make the video for “Say What You Want”, the first single off our upcoming album SILVERBALL out June 2nd!

We’ve been pals with the RoosterTeeth folks for over a decade now. I’ve lent my voice to Red Vs Blue (As Capt Butch Flowers), starred in a short series they produced (Capt Dynamic for the City of Heroes spots), and they created custom videos for a BNL tour many years ago. They are incredibly talented, and funny. It’s super nice to get the opportunity to work with your friends. Especially when your friends have a kick ass production studio. We are both big fans of what the other does, so when we get to do it together, it’s awesome!

ROCK-IT FUEL! (Part 5)

Our new album “Silverball” is less than a month away from its release date, and we couldn’t be more excited to share it with you. Spent some long days in the studio creating this one… huge thanks to CAFFEINE for all the help.

New Album ‘SILVERBALL’ out June 2, 2015

“I think it would be fair to say if the band was collectively known as Stella, then this record would indicate the reality that Stella had indeed got her groove back! This is the first record since our debut, Gordon that was written with no hand-wringing, second-guessing, insecurity or self-doubt,” states Ed.

Available on June 2nd, SILVERBALL was produced by the band’s longtime friend Gavin Brown (The Tragically Hip, Metric) who helmed their previous project, 2013 Grinning Streak. The album’s thirteen tracks showcase the band’s growth, while still delivering a flurry of counterpunches and a wisecrack or two, in true BNL fashion.

“We’re pushing in new directions—as always, I think—but it’s still unmistakably these four guys playing together, and that’s what I’m most proud of,” Robertson adds. “I put the record on and it doesn’t sound like anything we’ve ever done before, and yet it is unmistakably the new Barenaked Ladies record.”
