The Swipes, founded in 2007, produce a sweeping sound which is quite unique. The strongest roots of their music lie deep in the swingin’ sixties and in the work of 70’s protopunk, punk and post-punk protagonists like The Stooges, the Jam or The Clash. But their playing techniques are pretty up-to-date. As a result, the German four-piece has developed an individual style of garagepunk & surf‘n’roll, spiced with sparkling powerpop and a lusty dose of ska and reggae. They classify this blend as 'New Garage'. The Swoons, a forerunner project of The Swipes, were frequently played by John Peel, the legendary British radio DJ. The Popzillas, another precursor project, made TV appearances and gigs all over Europe, amongst others in Liverpool’s famous Cavern Club.
