About the Book

First comprehensive biography of Silverchair featuring interviews with all band members. Andrew Denton- 'I think you're enjoying life now. Would I be right?' Daniel Johns- 'Yeah, definitely, I love life. It's the best thing in the world.' - Denton, 2004 It's taken Daniel Johns a long time to be able to make such a simple statement. Having spent more than 10 years as the frontman for Silverchair, Australia's biggest rock band of the past decade, he's endured teen stardom, depression, anorexia, crippling reactive arthritis and the slings and arrows of the music industry, only to emerge, tattooed and renewed. And now, the Newcastle-born band have been recording in the famed Laurel Canyon studios in LA and will release their fifth album early in 07 and hit the road playing their own eccentric and feisty Oz Rock.

Review :
"Fantastic! I really like it ... much better and accurate than many others I have read about other bands I have worked with." --Nick Launay, producer, "Freak Show" and "Neon Ballroom", on "Tomorrow Never Knows" "From the opening chapter of this excellent rock biography (a genre high on output, but generally low on quality), Jeff Apter makes a compelling case... The [Silverchair] adventure may yet continue. If not, this book will stand as a fitting finale." --"The Bulletin "on "Tomorrow Never Knows" "It's an insider's account, by someone who understands how bands really work and recognises the many movers and shakers who assist the success of musically curious bands and their albums." --Rob Hirst, "Midnight Oil" on "Tomorrow Never Knows" Praise for original edition - TOMORROW NEVER KNOWS: "An engaging schoolkids-to-rockmasters odyssey, "Tomorrow Never Knows "brilliantly shadows Silverchair's career and pre-history... a riveting rockography." --"Rolling Stone" (four stars)
