Band Name Origins:

  • I read somewhere that they took Nirvana's song Sliver, mixed up the two letters, and took Alice in Chains' song Angry Chair, and combined the two. Not the Berlin song most people are referencing to. Submitted by: Tina
  • I'd heard them say on TV or radio that it was a cross between You Am I's song title "Berlin Chair" and Nirvana's song title "Sliver", which went from "Sliverchair" to "Silverchair". Submitted by: Tessa Davis
