Silver is the debut studio album by Canadian rock band Moist. The album cost approximately $2,639 Canadian to make.[2] It included the singles "Push", "Silver" and "Believe Me". It is the band's most commercially successful album.

"Push", the band's first single, was supported by a music video which received substantial airplay on MuchMusic in 1994.

Reception

Allmusic's James Chrispell gave the album a positive four star review, writing "Moist's music can be described as an aural equivelant 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."[1]
