It was released on July 24, 2007 in five different editions, including three retailer-exclusive editions that each added a unique acoustic bonus track. Similarly to Another Journal Entry, this album was released in a special edition variant known as How Can We Be Silent Premium Edition. It was released concurrently with the regular edition, adding a new cover sleeve and bundling a 45-minute DVD. Video content includes personal interviews, stories behind the songs on the album and two previously released music videos, "I Need You to Love Me and "Never Alone". MarketingOn May 20, 2007, Warner Music Group launched a promotional site, Have You Heard The Word?, to promote this album and other upcoming releases.[1] Two music videos were announced, but cancelled, during the How Can We Be Silent era. The first was announced on May 24, 2007 on the How Can We Be Silent All Access Pass site intended for Family Christian Stores customers, without announcing the song for the music video.[2] Additionally, the back of the All Access Pass mentions "the world premiere of the new BarlowGirl video and more!"[3] However, no such premiere occurred and the music video release was ultimately cancelled. The second music video, "Sweet Revenge", was recorded in 2009 by 1834 Productions as part of a Deep Forgiveness devotional. A promotional video features a very short clip of Alyssa Barlow in the music video, as she is mouthing: "'til you feel this pain too." However, the song cannot be heard, as the audio uses a promotional narrator.[4] This music video is lost, as it was omitted from Deep Forgiveness. {{clear|left}}Critical reception{{Album ratings|rev1 = About.com |rev1score = {{rating|5|5}}[5] |rev2 = Allmusic |rev2score = {{rating|2.5|5}}[6] |rev3 = CCM Magazine |rev3score = {{rating|4|5|score=85%}}[7] |rev4 = Christian Music Today |rev4score = {{rating|4|5}}[8] |rev5 = Cross Rhythms |rev5score = {{rating|8|10}}[9] |rev6 = Jesus Freak Hideout |rev6score = {{rating|4|5}}[10] |rev7 = Patrol Magazine |rev7score = {{rating|4.5|10|score=4.7 stars on a 10 point scale}}[11] }} How Can We Be Silent received generally positive reviews. Stephen Thomas Erlewine from Allmusic was less impressed, giving the album 2½ out of 5 stars for its "gothic textures" and its "noisy, cluttered multi-segmented songs." Similarly, David Sessions from Patrol Magazine gave the album a 4.7 out of 10 rating, calling it "an unvaried ruckus sustained for 50 minutes". The album's sound was likened to that of Evanescence.
