   About Swipe!
The cynical, fame hating children of a diy ethic with a dream of being best friends with Elton John. Proud working class semi-thugs with aspirations of getting to the middle. One great big confused contradiction..

Our debut single 'Mercy Me' is out now on 7" vinyl. To buy via Paypal, click on the logo below! If you want to send a cheque, just drop us a message and we'll give you an address. We'll then send the single just as soon as we get it. Please though, if you are buying from overseas - drop us a quick message first anyway, as the postage will cost a little more. Thankyou please. xx

Ha, I can't go about having defunct bands in my top 4!

I'm not coming down this weekend, but I am coming down the one after for party action. make sure you're free. Actually, lets have this chat on Flidbook or somewhere, not on the Swipe page!

well since finding out about your new friendship with Elton i was left with no choice (hehe) I'll put you back when i see your video which I'm itching to lay me mince pies on! I like your style ... axe the lot! ... It's the way forward ... who wants to know that your friends with the fucking Arcade fire anyway! ( whom i love by the way) but off with their heads. How you anyway. I miss your antics with a rider including Kulua and Milk. Shine!
