"Silhouettic" was the opening shot from Universes, the second Birds of Tokyo album, going out as a free download on the band's website on 14 April 2008, ahead of the album's independent release that July. Ian Kenny wrote the words, and the music is credited to Kenny with Anthony Jackson, Adam Spark and Adam Weston.
The album was cut in Western Australia, at Loop Studios in West Perth, at Wing Command in Perth and in a big wooden house by the sea at Injidup, then mixed by Tim Palmer at Ameraycan Studios in North Hollywood. While they were in California the band shot the videos for "Silhouettic" and "Broken Bones" in Lancaster, and the two clips tell one story between them. The "Silhouettic" video carries the second half but came out first, premiering on the band's website and Myspace page.
