是一個很夏天的音樂,去游泳,去跳舞,去戀愛。
當我第一次聽到他們的音樂時馬上想到的就是The Drums,整個開心到不行。這是盛世,是grunge pop,集聚Nirvana的風格。
我想Swim Deep和The Drums的音樂就是我們90's代表之一,這些真正90年代的精神音樂。
樂團跟樂團一定會有接觸的,結果發現他們跟Is Tropical很好!!!還有Spector和The 1975很好,可以常看到合照,貝斯手Cavan根本就是每天往那裡跑,專輯發行前幾天Spector每天都貼文Swim Deep的專即將發行;跟新樂團Peace也認識;還有The Drums的吉他手也常出現再他們身邊,也許拜Spector所賜Swim Deep跟也認識了The Drowners!本團美麗的鼓手Zachary還兼任了模特兒,有走2013 YSL秋冬男裝秀,當時Citizens! 主唱Tom Burke、吉他手Thom Rhoades、鼓手Mike Evans及他們的師兄Franz Ferdinand主唱Alex Kapranos有出席YSL,兩樂團還互相關注對方twitter。連Kitsuné品牌的老闆Gildas都按他們facbook粉絲頁讚。
最近鼓手訂婚了,心碎碎(感覺像嫁女兒),超甜蜜,是愛粉色的未婚夫妻檔。現在這個"Vine"軟體很好用,他們拍了很多白癡影片上傳,尤其是Austin,熊熊娃娃太常出現lol

◎英國伯明罕矚目Alternative Rock樂團,2013年首張大碟
◎2013年與Two Door Cinema Club聯名巡演;NME、Q雜誌好評推薦
◎收錄矚目單曲〈King City〉、〈Honey〉及〈The Sea〉等單曲;豪華限定盤DVD加收專輯完整製作紀錄影片及完整音樂MV
2011年在英國伯明罕成立,泳渡樂團以調性柔軟,卻帶著反骨邊緣的少年性格,將Alternative Rock與90年代的Pop愉悅旋律混搭,調配出宛如The XX般的迷離夢幻,Swim Deep以青春的姿態崛起,而成員則是四個年齡約在16、17歲的男孩所組成,他們在超市打工之餘練團、寫歌及演出,穿著像是爸媽衣櫃裡的舊衣物、不顧一切的態度唱著來自90年代曲風的歌曲,掩不住青春的光芒,他們的音樂如海面反射的波光,如此無憂無慮又閃閃耀人!在接連幾首廣受好評的作品如〈King City〉、〈Honey〉和〈The Sea〉後,我們終於盼到他們氣質脫俗、別於時興「搖滾」韻味的首張專輯《Where the Heaven Are We》,請來曾和Florence & The Machine、Ed Sheeran等人合作的知名製作人Charlie Hugall操盤打造,洋溢出無壓閒適的青春小搖滾。
在製作人Charlie Hugall的悉心雕琢下,Swim Deep特別前往布魯塞爾錄製專輯,四名年輕孩子的音樂中,少了印象裡青少年樂團的生猛粗獷,反倒在主唱Austin Williams傭懶雅痞的嗓音中,找到紛擾城市的逃脫指引,樂曲在吉他手Tom Higgins、鼓手Zachary Robinson和貝斯手Cavan McCarthy的玩世態度中,充滿順耳流暢的甜美少男夢,絕對是今夏時分來自英國最可人的樂團作品之一。CD+DVD豪華限定盤除收錄Swim Deep的數支完整音樂MV,更獨家揭露首張專輯的製作幕後花絮紀錄。那徜徉在小天堂的自溺與自在,在Swim Deep的《Where The Heaven Are We》中,掀起愜意可愛的微小波瀾。(專輯側標)
同齡,不可思議。我們的盛世。

我正在等,從預購開始到現在將近兩個月了,希望快點拿到,而且在台灣嘛好遠!不知是海運還是空運,訂越多運費沒較便宜。
預購專輯和黑膠都有簽名。我買的是CD+DVD豪華版和一組黑膠,買CD+DVD還送徽章。
英國街頭現在可以看大中型看板,廣告打很兇,他們自己已經拍了4、5張在街頭看到的。
Cavan貼在instagram的照片
專輯沒收錄這首我好難過,我最喜歡這首「Beach Justice」了
無論節奏和Austin的唱腔,讓我很放鬆很飄然,很像戀愛了。夏天!!!
Swim Deep - Beach Justice
And I will sell myself for something I made out to be
And I will sell myself for something I wanted out to be
'Cause talking sucks I know you like it
It's just made up stuff beneath the ice cellar
We'll never know what love is
All we know is that love is
When you're really that happy to see me
When you're really that happy to see me smile
When she gets up and I'm still awake
Please go easy on me, Sunday
When she gets up and I'm still awake
Please go easy on me, Sunday
Woah please go easy on me, Sunday
Yeah yeah yeah please go easy on me, Sunday
And I will sell myself for something I made out to be
And I will sell myself for something I wanted out to be
'Cause all this talk is kinda boring
you got too much fun for someone boring
We'll never know what love is
All we know is that love is
When you're really that happy to see me
When you're really that happy to see me smile
When she gets up and I'm still awake
Please go easy on me, Sunday
When she gets up and I'm still awake
Please go easy on me, Sunday
Woah please go easy on me, Sunday
Yeah yeah yeah please go easy on me, Sunday

I wanna be everything that I'm not
I wanna be rich, I wanna show off
Just a desperado, with a sour twist
It'll all come sweet on your lips
'Cause I'm in love, so old
Put your flowers down, it's too cold
Fuck your romance, I wanna pretend
That jenny lee lindberg is my girlfriend
With the sun on my back it's a nice day
I will never to choose any other way
With the sun on my back it's a nice day
I will never to choose any other way
I need to come home to see my friends
I need to come down to feel insane
I know I ain't cool right now
I'm as high as a fool, I'm outta sight yeah
'Cause I'm in love, so old
Put your flowers down, it's too cold
Fuck your romance, I wanna pretend
That jenny lee lindberg is my girlfriend
With the sun on my back it's a nice day
I will never to choose any other way
With the sun on my back it's a nice day
I will never to choose any other way
With the sun on my back it's a nice day
I will never to choose any other way
With the sun on my back it's a nice day

幕後花絮
天啊鼓手超怕冷好可愛
Swim Deep - She Changes the Weather
很美很美
Seen it all but I've seen nothing yet
Cause I forget
Do I know or do I think I know?
It's all we are, it's so clear
She takes my time and I don't mind
She makes me feel like
Like I can see for miles
She changes the weather in my world
Seems like it's never getting cold
It's ok, it's not obvious
Cause what you say will make my day
Rid of consequence
It's all we are, but it's so clear
She takes my time and I don't mind
She makes me feel like
Like I can see for miles
She changes the weather in my world
Seems like it's never getting cold
She takes the time and I don't mind
She makes me feel like
Like I can see for miles
She changes the weather in my world
Seems like it's never getting cold
Swim Deep - The Sea
Go down to the sea
and tell me what it is that you wanna be.
I say go down to the sea
and tell me what it is that you wanna be.
Uh uh ah!
Uh uh ah!
Uh uh ah!
Uh uh ah!
Gonna take this bone and drive me L into the sea
gonna fly this place so high that I won't know what's real
gonna pay the sky surrender I don't wanna feel
what my mama and my daddy said was real.
'Cause I can feel it, feel
I can see it, see it
I wanna show anybody who wants this feeling
'cause I can feel it, feel
I can see it, see
now I won't be there to see.
Who's got something, got something to say.
Who's got something, got something to say.
Can't you see it in your thoughts?
can you reach, it doesn't make you wanna walk
can you taste it in the feeling that you've got
tell me something or then nothing ain't so wrong.
'Cause I can feel it, feel
I can see it, see it
I wanna show anybody who wants this feeling
'cause I can feel it, feel
I can see it, see
now I won't be there to see.
And you don't know
is that I feel it strong,
I'll have my eyes set on you,
forever.
Who's got something, got something to say.
Who's got something, got something to say.
Who's got something, got something to say.
Who's got something, got something to say.
If you only only only stay.
Swim Deep - Honey
She wanna move around and hold on to the dreams
That shes streaming
She wanna loose the frown and turn it upside down
And start living
Ah, ah, ah, dont blame your time
In your risk, for not doing what makes you sick
Dont blame your clock on the wall
For running round for nothing at all
So I say, uh, uh, baby,
Take your feet dancing shoes
And go crazy
And dont you dream in your sleep its just lazy
Are we having fun or are we dazing, baby?
I wanna go down south and hold on to your feelings lately
I wanna hear you growl but whos gonna be there
To save me?
Ah, ah, ah, dont blame your time
In your risk, for not doing what makes you sick
Dont blame your clock on the wall
For running round for nothing at all
So I say, uh, uh, baby,
Take your feet dancing shoes
And go crazy
And dont you dream in your sleep its just lazy
Are we having fun or are we dazing, baby?
And dont you dream in your sleep its just lazy
Dont you dream in your sleep its just lazy
Dont you dream in your sleep its just lazy
Dont you dream in your sleep its just lazy
Dont you dream in your sleep its just lazy
Yeah its just lazy
Dont you dream in your sleep its just lazy
Dont baby, dont you dream in your sleep its just lazy
Dont you dream in your sleep its just lazy
Dont baby, dont you dream in your sleep its just lazy
Dont you dream in your sleep its just lazy

Swim Deep - The Sea(Live)SPGtv
King City [Summer Six - Live from The Great Escape]
我喜歡,但剛好觀眾傻住了,一動也不動,也許群眾年齡偏高,亦或怎樣 idk!i dont care!
這場Austin好像有點緊張,收尾有些馬虎。但他們的音樂真的很棒,希望越來越好。

請問一下台灣確定不會進他們專輯了嗎?
好喜歡你的文章風格還有每次背景音樂都好好聽,<3
我也是等了好久才收到東西,可是打開居然沒有燙布(哭
不知道是漏寄還怎麼樣QAQ
現在真後悔不是買黑膠ˊˋ
代購費真的是高的可怕!!!!!
我有回信給官方可是沒有消息所以沒有燙布啊啊啊Q__Q
啊這次THE1975我又想買可是我不敢跟我媽麻借卡了所以就去問了一下代購
那個價錢我算一算那個代購費快伍佰元哭QAQ
原本說要補寄燙布給我的
今天收到mail居然說沒有庫存了要全額退費這樣要開心還是難過Q____Q
我發現唱片行有在賣耶是不含運費的那種價錢
我是近期才發現這團 相見恨晚...
現在買專輯的話是不是不會送燙布了?
好可惜
我也是在存錢想買他們專輯
真的很精緻!!!!
太喜歡他們音樂了
一聽整個陷入
真的沒幾個粉絲...
我很怕他們覺得 沒市場 就不想來.....
現在我看官網的組合
好像沒有當初的專輯+黑膠+各單曲 嗚嗚
超想要那個組合阿...
而且他們團梯賣好便宜 然後想買也不知道要怎麼買...........
超好聽阿這專輯.... 多虧你的文章讓我又更了解他們
然後接吻那張 哈哈哈哈哈哈 小心碎 因為我很愛Cav
話說日前我在他們fb官方粉絲團po文 說我是台灣粉絲希望他們能來台灣之類的
他們都沒再回粉絲留言的 居然就回我了一個wink ;-)
我當下看到那個我真的樂瘋了 雖然可能只是粉絲專頁管理員留言
可是還是很訝異會回我!!!
因為我看其他粉絲也留類似像我這樣 說 希望你們去墨西哥~ 你們昨晚表演超棒希望你們再來 blah blah諸如此類的
我身邊喜歡他的包括我只有3個 i_____i 幾隻小貓......
而且真的要說超喜歡他們的話
大概我跟另一個人而已哈哈哈哈
台灣都沒有他們粉絲團嗎嗚嗚
真假他們很愛wink!! 怎麼說 看來我要更多了解他們一點
太晚認識他們了!!
小騷貨他真的太可愛了<3<3<3<3
10人也太多 真好 我的就算推廣了他們也不喜歡這種歌路...
超開心 有一些台灣粉絲看到我貼文也陸續在下面留言希望他們趕快來台灣
希望有更多台灣粉絲看到 然後留言!!!
謝謝你都會回我~ 因為身邊實在沒有可以這樣聊他們的人
前陣子才剛堆廣他們
結果他們就要來
可是 我沒錢!!!!!!!!
我很痛苦 陷入深淵不知道要不要去= =
我也錯過了預售.........
一陣悲哀
抱歉我很煩一直留言 哈哈 但是身邊真的都沒人懂!!
因為一直等不到他們來台灣,我就跑去birmingham看他們了,後來成為正式團員的鍵盤手James (他也超可愛,五人裡我最愛他XD) 跟我說之前亞巡他們本來有要來台北 (他是真的講"Taipei" 我超感動),後來沒有成...唉唉唉,我有跟他們每個人說求求你們下次一定要來台灣。記得之前在twitter上tweet他們要他們快來台灣,還被收藏了,可是就一直都還沒來....只好看看第二張的巡迴囉!!
總覺得他們pro-shot的現場影片非常少,而且Austin唱現場感覺都太隨興了,常走音,這點總是讓我不知如何是好XDDD
James蠻健談的,也很喜歡跟粉絲互動,我發現官方帳號幾乎都是他和Ozzy在po文XD 而且他說話的口音真的是好迷人啊啊啊啊 (離題) 結果他們九月要去上海!!! 我已經怒留言說快來台北了....1975跟swim deep一起巡感覺就很划算 XDDD
我最近也是好喜歡wolf alice,奧斯丁人生勝利組啊女友這麼正,希望可以很快在台灣看到wolf alice啊啊啊!! Wolf Alice在美國跟Drenge一起tour,也是好划算的感覺~
關於隨性這點,團員自己也都承認的,最近有次訪問中他們就說 "we were shit live." 算你們有自知之明啊之後麻煩給我好好唱!!
Zach受訪都很少講話的感覺,是說他只要好好賣臉就夠了(誤)
最近的現場還沒有看到音質比較好的,無法評論,就我在Birmingham看的那場,坦白說Ozzy都亂走音啊!完全是醉漢模式 XDDD
https://youtu.be/n1vKsxMTr44
↑↑ 這個訪問(訪問超白癡的)有比較多Zach講話的片段,他講話這樣慵懶慵懶的好有磁性 (掩面)
