German pop rock band Silbermond has released six studio albums, one compilation albums, and twenty singles (including two as a featured artist). In 2004, their record company Sony BMG requested the quartet to record and release skate punk song "Mach's dir selbst" as their debut single; the song underperformed on the charts. Months later, second single "Durch die Nacht" became a top twenty hit on the German Singles Chart and prompted the label to release Silbermond's debut album Verschwende deine Zeit (2004). A major success, it reached the top five in Austria and Germany, where it was certified platinum and 7× gold, respectively.[1][2] Ballad "Symphonie", the album's third single, became the group's first top five hit.[3]

Laut gedacht, the group's second album, was released in April 2006.

It produced three singles, including "Irgendwas bleibt", Silbermond's second number-one hit, and "Krieger des Lichts", which reached the top ten in Germany.[3][5][4]
In 2012, fourth studio album Himmel auf was released. A top three success, it was reached gold status in Austria and 3× gold status in Germany.[1][2] Its same-titled debut single peaked within the top five in Germany.[3] In 2014, Alles auf Anfang 2014–04, Silbermond's first compilation was released. It reached the top ten in Austria and Switzerland and was certified gold by the BVMI.[2] The same year, the band collaborated with Band Aid 30 Germany on a remake of "Do They Know It's Christmas?", which became another number-one hit in Germany.[3] Leichtes Gepäck, the group's fifth album, was released in November 2015. Recorded in Nashville, it reached the top five in Germany and Switzerland.[3][4]
