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
I will never to choose any other way

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 she’s streaming
She wanna loose the frown and turn it upside down
And start living
Ah, ah, ah, don’t blame your time
In your risk, for not doing what makes you sick
Don’t 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 don’t you dream in your sleep it’s 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 who’s gonna be there
To save me?
Ah, ah, ah, don’t blame your time
In your risk, for not doing what makes you sick
Don’t 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 don’t you dream in your sleep it’s just lazy
Are we having fun or are we dazing, baby?
And don’t you dream in your sleep it’s just lazy
Don’t you dream in your sleep it’s just lazy
Don’t you dream in your sleep it’s just lazy
Don’t you dream in your sleep it’s just lazy
Don’t you dream in your sleep it’s just lazy
Yeah it’s just lazy
Don’t you dream in your sleep it’s just lazy
Don’t baby, don’t you dream in your sleep it’s just lazy
Don’t you dream in your sleep it’s just lazy
Don’t baby, don’t you dream in your sleep it’s just lazy
Don’t you dream in your sleep it’s just lazy

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。
