Silver is the second EP by Jesu, their third release overall, released by Hydra Head Records on April 11, 2006.[1] This album shows a more melodic and poppy side to the band than the previous two Jesu releases, drawing comparisons to shoegazing bands such as My Bloody Valentine and Ride.[2] Pitchfork Media placed the title track at #488 on their "The Top 500 Tracks of the 2000s" list. Decibel ranked it the 6th best release of 2006[3] and the 26th best release of the decade.[4]
