All You Need To Know About The Script's New Album 'No Sound Without Silence'

Consistency is a rare thing in the music industry, but it's a thing of beauty when it occurs. For pop band The Script, the Irish trio have released three albums that have been nothing but great - and they're looking to continue that streak with their fourth record out next month.

The Script have been touring across the country with OneRepublic and American Authors since June and they'll be doing so until November. It may sound tiring, but the guys are pretty used to it. Last year, The Script went on a world tour to support their album, 3 - but they did more than just support the record. In fact, The Script's upcoming album out September 12, No Sound Without Silence, was primarily recorded in their tour bus during their routing. “We’d come off stage and start recording straight away in a studio bus," frontman Danny O'Donoghue told the Daily Star. It's an unconventional strategy, but definitely not unheard of. The Rolling Stones owned their own mobile recording studio that they'd lend to artists, and it ended up leading to albums from the likes of Led Zeppelin and Fleetwood Mac. What made The Script decide to go mobile with this record? "Everything’s massive, everything’s larger than life on stage so when we hit the studio we wanted it to have that same impact," he said.

It makes sense. Coming off stage after a show in a giant venue must have the adrenaline pumping, so why not go record new music right afterwards? Judging from the first single from No Sound Without Silence, O'Donoghue is pretty spot on with his hopes to make the songs larger than life. The track, 'Superheroes,' is easily one of the best singles from The Script yet and it shouldn't have a problem giving them another hit. It's epic and its got a ton of personality - everything that pop radio always needs.

So, what should we expect from No Sound Without Silence when it hits stores next month? For what it's worth, 'Superheroes' was the first song that was written for the record, so if any of the rest of the ten tracks follow in those footsteps then we'll be in for some pretty great tunes. Aside from 'Superheroes,' the band contributed a new track to the movie Mrs. Brown's Boys D'Movie entitled 'Hail Rain Or Sunshine,' and it'll still be included on the album's final track listing. Also, if you pre-order the record on iTunes, you will also get the bonus track, 'Howl at the Moon.' For anyone confused about what the heck the album title means, it actually has a pretty good message.

"There is no sound without silence. You can't have anything good to say if you don't think about it first," O'Donoghue said. "It's like a prequel to the first album, like the album that should have come out before the very first Script album." You might also be aware of O'Donoghue's serving as a coach for the UK version of 'The Voice' - but he left shortly after the second season to focus more on the album. “To go back to being a band and doing what we do best was important," he said about it. Seems like The Script are going to be giving it their all on this record, and it's already looking like No Sound Without Silence is going to be the band's loudest material to date.
