Saliva Quotes

Saliva is an American rock band formed in Memphis, Tennessee, in 1996. Saliva released their self-titled debut album in 1997 through Rockingchair Records, a label owned and operated by Mark Yoshida. The release was recorded and produced by Bill Pappas at Rockingchair Studios.

They were signed to Island Records and went on to release their second studio album Every Six Seconds. Saliva later released their third studio album titled Back into Your System in 2002, which reached No. 19 on the Billboard 200. Back into Your System launched one of Saliva's most successful songs, "Always", reaching No. 51 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 1 on the Modern Rock Chart.

Three years after Survival of the Sickest, Saliva released Blood Stained Love Story in 2007, repeating Back into Your System's chart performance at No. 19 on the Billboard 200. Its first single, "Ladies and Gentlemen", peaked at No. 2 on the Mainstream Rock Chart. Their most well known lineup, which lasted from 2000-2005, consisted of Josey Scott, Wayne Swinny, Chris D'Abaldo, Dave Novotny, and Paul Crosby.

The band is known for having their songs played at sporting events, especially WWE. The band's guitarist Wayne Swinny said, "a lot of our songs, whether they were intended that way or not - most of them weren't - they just lend themselves to sporting events. You can't watch a football game or go to a football game and not hear 'Click Click Boom,' 'Ladies and Gentlemen'."

On March 22, 2023, guitarist and founding member Wayne Swinny died from a brain hemorrhage, at the age of 59. He was the last original member who still remained with the band.

In the weeks following Swinny's death, the band announced they would be continuing in honour of him. They completed a North American co-headlining tour with Drowning Pool, with support from Adelitas Way and Any Given Sin, across September and October 2023.

In May 2023, Scott announced that he would begin touring with a new band entitled Josey Scott's Saliva, performing Saliva's songs from his era as well as his new songs.

In September 2023, the band released their 11th studio album, Revelation. The album, recorded over the pandemic, is the last to feature Swinny's guitar playing.
