On JanuA music video for "A Midwestern State of Emergency" was released alongside the song's streaming release and coincided with the official announcement of I Am Alive in Everything I Touch. The album was recorded with producer Jordan Valeriote. At times I almost stopped myself and said, is this going too far? Am I going to say something I’m going to regret? And after taking a step back and a few breaks from writing, I decided I needed to do this. As much as I’ve put myself out there over all the records we’ve done, there’s something more real about this one. Told had this to say about the album: “Īll the city clips we recorded, the transitions, and making sure the concept really worked and told this story of loneliness despite being surrounded by so much excitement. Each track’s setting is a different city that geographically falls into that region, with real life recordings of each city incorporated into the songs. The album is split into 4 chapters: " Borealis" (North), " Austeralis" (South), "Zephyrus" (West) and "Eurus" (East). Similar to A Shipwreck in the Sand (2009) and This Is How the Wind Shifts (2013), I Am Alive in Everything I Touch is a conceptual album penned by lyricist and lead vocalist Shane Told. The album was released on through Rise Records (worldwide) and New Damage Records (Canada). I Am Alive in Everything I Touch is the eighth studio album by Canadian post-hardcore band Silverstein.
