Sadness Revealed: Swervedriver – “Future Ruins”
Swervedriver
“Future Ruins”
Future Ruins
Yeah, Swervedriver has a new album out. I haven’t been depressed for too long (and I love being depressed), but Swervedriver always does it too me. They are the best. Comprised of Adam Franklin- Lead Vocals- Guitars; Jim Hartridge – Vox – Guitars; Mikey Jones – Drums and vibes; Mick Quinn – Bass; or Ben Ellis – Bass, Swervedriver is like Mazzy Star: able to make you feel good about feeling sad. And “Future Ruins” is such a great song. I love the term, Easydelic, for their sound, a mix of psychedelic and shoegaze. Whatever you call them, they have always been one of the best. And now they’re back with a vengeance. Thanks be to Calliope, that muse of music.
