Mistletone & Triple R present the return of legendary New Zealand band The Chills. Following on from The BBC Sessions on Fire Records, The Chills are about to release their first full length album in nearly two decades, Silver Bullets.

Recorded at Albany Street Studios in Dunedin (NZ) the album instantly reaffirms Phillipps’ aptitude for writing intelligent and timeless pop songs delivered with conviction.
Still burning brightly, and with an extraordinary career, The Chills have gone through reformations with breaks on and off. In the late 90s and early 00s they returned to the live scene reaching wider audiences. With eight brand new tunes, they released mini-albumStand By in 2004. In 2013 The Chills joined Fire and Far South with a live LP Somewhere Beautiful, unearthing rare recordings from a private NYE party. Subsequent EPs Molten Gold and Stand By (Tour 2014) and the acclaimed The BBC Sessions LP then followed.
The Chills' highly anticipated new album Silver Bullets is released 30th October on Fire Records with local release by Rocket Distribution.
