Silence Is Golden is A Thorn for Every Heart's first EP. It contains either six or seven tracks, depending on the version. The original version contains "Intro" as track #1 and "Next of Kin" as track #2. On later versions, those two tracks were combined as track #1. The primary songwriters were Jeff Harber, Joel Ryan Holt, and Aaron Peck. Kelvin Cruz was the primary lyricist. It is the only A Thorn for Every Heart record to feature founding guitarist Holt, though five of its six songs were rerecorded to fill half the track listing of the band's forthcoming debut album, Things Aren't So Beautiful Now, which served to be their only release for four and a half years after the release of "Silence Is Golden."
