Pepe Silvia 03:31
A lifetime isn't a longtime All these sweet nothings really mean something Television paints a picture All these sweet nothings really mean something I don't care for the way you look at me All these sweet nothings really mean something Words unspoken can start to burn a hole I got in too deep, but now I'm on my own I just need something to bring me back to shore When our friendship sinks I'll have to search the wreck To find something to cling on for closure Maybe if we we’d met at another time All these sweet nothings really mean something I’d have been the one you had to save All these sweet nothings really mean something I don't care for forgotten memories All these sweet nothings really mean something Words unspoken can start to burn a hole

We both know it's gone too far So how come I'm the only one with scars? You disappeared and I know why But I will never let you see me cry I hate that I always have to be the one To hold it all so you can just keep on And you bleed me dry and ask me why I'm weak I gave you more than I thought you would keep You held my hand, a thunderstorm And I missed you before you'd even gone I think there's a photo of the moment that you fell in love And I wanted more than you bargained for And I wanted more than you bargained for

Cooler 03:18
When I'm sad I look up your band The sound of your voice helps me feel less alone I don't know what I want Sometimes I roll a smoke The taste on my lips make me feel close to you I don't know what I'll do I don't know what I want I think that I'm scared of you We'd be good together you and I But I think I'm cooler even though I'm shy We'd be good together you and I But I think I'm cooler even though I'm shy When I'm sad I look up your band The sound of your voice helps me feel less alone

Cobwebs 04:49
I sleep with one eye open, ‘cause I think it makes all my dreams come true Does it give our friendship a weird dynamic if I only dream of you? I know that I think it's all bullshit, but do you believe in fate? I think if you checked your horoscope you'd find that you've made a big mistake Been thinking about giving in until you walked in You cleared the cobwebs from my heart You flipped the script and tore it apart You blew the dust from off my soul But you'll never know You say that it's all in my head, keep saying it til I fade How can I believe a word that you say, anxiety comes in waves I know you're only here for the thrill of the chase, but baby I don't care I'll always feel cuter drunkenly showing you my underwear

about

Celebrating 10 years of being a band by finally putting out a new EP!

People seem to have liked the single's we've released so far!

(Pepe Silvia is) "a guitar-powered anthem with exceptional melodic power courtesy of dual lead singers who perform with a lot of passion and lung capacity to match." Chris Deville - Stereogum

"It’s impressive to hear such energy pouring out of a group with a full decade behind them. If you resolved to have more fun this year, start here." Corey Montgomery - The Hard Times

"With striking guitars and intense melodies, “Pepe Silvia” stands out for the energy of the two vocalists, who alternate between powerful and emotional voices." Luis Fernando Bro - Disconecta (Brasil)

"Slowlight are in full flow, perhaps making a nonsense of genres again, their own take on emotionally-charged punk given a new twist with boy-girl vocals that work perfectly." - Stuart McHugh is this music? (Live Review)
