This is just the most beautiful perfect song ever. You just gotta love how they save the chorus until the very end. This is Classic SWERVEDRIVER at it's very best!
agreed. but it’s so difficult to find the pinnacle with a small number of artists--Swervedriver is such a band. Make no mistake--this IS a perfect song. But they have at least 20 or 30 such perfections.
It puzzles me year after year that SWD isn't a household name. It's the most skillfully crafted, unpretentious rock and roll on the planet. Has been since Raise. And whichever phase of their career you prefer, you can be sure it was done with love and soul.
Awesome!! Great to hear bands that are still making great music!! The world needs this more than ever! Great work guys! As a guitarist and musician this brings me hope
I saw them in Hollywood on the Raise tour and now finally next month at The Fonda last gig of the North American tour. This is my all time favorite band and that's sayin something!
I think the lyrics are - You’re hitting on me for a long time And you don’t even know my name If you got to know me we are much the same Two thousand myriad nightmares with the neighbourhood up in flames As you swoop above me I sink down the drain And if you slaughter me in the dark from your laser space in the sky And if you murder me in the dark make sure you hold your conscience high I love you too You’re hitting on me for a long time And you don’t even know my name If you got to know me we are much the same Two thousand myriad nightmares with the neighbourhood up in flames As you swoop above me I sink down the drain And if you slaughter me in the dark from your laser space in the sky And if you murder me in the dark make sure you hold your conscience high I love you too Oh oh Oh oh Oh oh Oh oh And if you slaughter me in the dark from your laser space in the sky And if you murder me in the dark make sure you hold your conscience high I love you too Drone lover goodbye Drone lover goodbye Drone lover goodbye Drone lover goodbye
People are getting bored of hearing it from me I know... I don't care. Saw these guys with Failure in the ATL the other night and they were AMAZING. Highly recommend anyone checking em out.
Yeah, good stuff. Reminds me of a lazy My Bloody Valentine, all detuned guitars and piled vocals. The rest of the album's a bit disappointing; not as good as 'I wasn't born to lose you'. Still, it's good they're making music.
Masterpiece after Masterpiece! The Greatest Band to come out of England in the last 30 years!
One of your best songs. Salut.

All their albums pure pleasure masterpieces really 😊❤
This band has never let me down!!! I’ve been a fanatic since Raise!!
Best band EVER! Period. End of arguement.
Thing I like most about this amazing band is they’ve kept their sound original for 20 plus years but still fresh and exciting .. love you Swd x
The visuals compliment the sounds.
Swervedriver .. soundtrack for joyous life. 😊

That’s what I thought too! Amazing to see the boys back with another great song

Soooooooo SWD! Classic shoegazer feel. Fantastic!

Some Chords and vocal melodies reminds me “City Girl” from Lost In Translation Movie OST made by Kevin Shields
Yeah, me too, lovely isn't it?
I saw them in Hollywood on the Raise tour and now finally next month at The Fonda last gig of the North American tour. This is my all time favorite band and that's sayin something!

I like classic Swervedriver the best. Raise is their best.
I think the lyrics are -
You’re hitting on me for a long time
And you don’t even know my name
If you got to know me we are much the same
Two thousand myriad nightmares with the neighbourhood up in flames
As you swoop above me I sink down the drain
And if you slaughter me in the dark from your laser space in the sky
And if you murder me in the dark make sure you hold your conscience high
I love you too
You’re hitting on me for a long time
And you don’t even know my name
If you got to know me we are much the same
Two thousand myriad nightmares with the neighbourhood up in flames
As you swoop above me I sink down the drain
And if you slaughter me in the dark from your laser space in the sky
And if you murder me in the dark make sure you hold your conscience high
I love you too
Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh
And if you slaughter me in the dark from your laser space in the sky
And if you murder me in the dark make sure you hold your conscience high
I love you too
Drone lover goodbye
Drone lover goodbye
Drone lover goodbye
Drone lover goodbye
Nice. I think he says "neighborhood up in flames"
jaguarsharkman yep I think you’re right!
Thanks for posting! Amazing lyrics as always
"You head my way for a long time..."
I do not know how to explain .........BBBUUUMM

I am so glad I'm not deaf, god damn.
People are getting bored of hearing it from me I know...
I don't care.
Saw these guys with Failure in the ATL the other night and they were AMAZING.
Highly recommend anyone checking em out.
Saw them in Nashville. The vibe was incredible. Epic. One of the best shows I've been to in years.
what album is this track from, pls?
Future Ruins
Yeah, good stuff. Reminds me of a lazy My Bloody Valentine, all detuned guitars and piled vocals. The rest of the album's a bit disappointing; not as good as 'I wasn't born to lose you'. Still, it's good they're making music.
F####### rave down
to the ground
Protest for the soul of the West, Brothers!
