SWIMS

"The tunes have the perfect formula of gang vocals, handclaps, tapping and driving rhythm which makes the songs pretty unbeatable. 'Hitler Was A Bad Man' encompasses it all in 3 and a half minutes. Henry Milne's lead vocals are smooth and heartfelt, a little like Orlando Weeks but more powerful. The lyrics are simple but awesome (and not really about Hilter.) The line "Take the good with the bad and the bad with the good and you'll come out on top just like I knew that you would" is the one that'll be stuck in your head. Lead guitarist Frank Styles has got a serious knack for a melody while Jo Smith and Sean Stapleton hold it all down without breaking a sweat, keeping the songs, and your feet, moving."

"Worthing-based SWIMS technicality is well matched by some fine vocal overlaps and crispy-clean African guitars."
Drowned in Sound

"Worthing four piece whose syncopated clean match rock will leave you feeling like you've just heard the future of music"
This Charming Sound

"Swims are a young local band that I really want to work with. Their songs are nervy and complex and just blow me away."
XYZ Magazine, Julian Tardo (Church Road Studios)
