Im in Detroit and have a KEXP bumper sticker on my car! Send them as SASE and theyll send you some! Best station in the world. Check out Khruangbin on KEXP if you havent!
Glad to see new fans. I've been a fan since they debuted in the 90s, but I never saw them live until they reunited a few years ago during the Shoegaze Renaissance. I've seen them twice since then, and I'll see them again in October.
I luckily stumbled upon Swervedriver when Raise was first released. That album gave me enough energy to workout longer, surf harder and run through brick walls!!!
Bliss. Bloody beautiful guitars, bass and drums with feel. Songs that take you out there. Hugely overlooked but hasn’t stopped them which is great. Been listening since ‘91.
These guys are iconic and I wish they got the recognition they so deserve. They just got screwed by PledgeMusic and I hope they can make another album.
@@user-wu8sj3ee3d They used a Go Fund Me type organization called Pledge Music where fans pledged actual money to help the band make Future Ruins. PledgeMusic was supposed to facilitate the transfer of the funds. They have now declared bankruptcy and can't fully pay Swervedriver all the contributions from the fans. They have also screwed many other artists. I believe their is now a lawsuit pending. I myself pledged to receive a signed CD from the band and they weren't able to provide me with that. Not the bands fault.
Ladytron got screwed too. I did the digital download on both pledges, so I got those on time. I bought the signed CD for Swervedriver's Future Ruins, and I did get it eventually.
Swervedriver only one ofve greatest bands to ever love..Adam Franklin is an underated guitar player and should go down in history as one of the greatest
This is so hysterically awesome it’s laughably the most serious mistake anyone will ever make not listening to this band regularly. (prerferably stoned)
Future Ruins is my Album of the Year. Two great reunion albums for these guys. Much better than the 2 Ride albums, though mbv and Slowdive reunion albums were better.
I used to have their album Mezcal head on cassette tape, great stuff! The album artwork didn’t have band pictures so i had no idea what these guys looked like. Seeing these old farts playing live here on KEXP now ruins the magic a bit, in my imagination they were way more cool looking. Btw: i recall two similar sounding bands from the same era that i haven’t heard of ever since: Truly and Mystery machine. Anyone know them? Worth listening to!
I rate Swd high because the guitar always has huge depth and reminds me of bagpipes. I wonder who made their equipment and if they had something like baggy in mind.
You’re right about the bagpipes type droning but it’s closer to a sitar to my ear, or two master senseis so perfectly intertwining their sitar mantras and the bass and drums are the majestic, psychedelic mountain they sit on. (sorry I’m swervestoned, MY phrase I evented NOW)
For a Day Like Tomorrow was everything that the music on Future Ruins wasn't...bright and tuneful and energetic. I wanted so much to enjoy Ruins. Even had in for a guitar (via their Pledge Music account) that was used during the sessions (but bailed when Pledge's issues with delivering what you paid for became a losing proposition.) But it was just sludgy and anodyne for the most part. If they ever make another record together I hope it's closer to the spirit of I Wasn't Born and less of the Ruins which the bland gray cover art strongly hinted the contents would be.
I have been listening to them since 1993, my big brother turned me onto them. Unfortunately brit pop was rearing its head and was pushed underground. But I prefer underground ground
Who does music is an interpretation of a very big collection of music that vicariously makes your mind right. If you make that statement you definitely aren't a musician.
why do you have such a delay between recording and posting?like 3 mounths. im waiting for my friend Kelly Finnigan live show at your place please dont make us wait until christmas please
Hi, thanks for watching. We work with a very small team to produce a very large number of sessions each year. In fact, we're usually uploading about 5 per week, sometimes more more! And it's the same small crew filming and editing all of these great performances, so, while we understand your being anxious to hear a session we recorded, we hope you'll be patient with us as we work through ALL of the great sessions to deliver them to you in the highest quality we can manage. Also, did you know that KEXP is a non-profit, listener powered station that relies on donor support? We hope that you and everyone else who enjoys these sessions will consider helping us make these video and keep KEXP going strong. You can support us here: www.kexp.org/donate
@@kexp Always with the hand out, hey,? And always whining about something. But yet you have brand new facilities (in Seattle I believe), and I hear you have cold brew coffee on tap (FOR FREE, right?) This is all paid for by the gov't and your listeners. You and NPR are slanderous institutions, always begging for more- control your burn rate, take a haircut. I tell you what, drop all uses of the word AWESOME and get rid of Cherly (it's time for some fresh blood), and I'll send you a BIG ASS CHECK - you bunch of arrogant wood chucking peasant beggers. COLD BREW ON TAP PAID FOR BY YOUR LISTENERS. *Always with the hollow hand out*
These guys are much like Shihad. First two albums were brilliant then all downhill from there. Although Swervedriver never morphed into shite like A Simple Plan when Shihad completely sold their souls.
KEXP is consistently the best session radio / tv production in the world. And I'm a brit living in the UK!
KEXP is the modern Peel Sessions (RIP John).

absolutely
@@noughiphiet i got to admit you're pretty spot on with that!
Oh Britannia! Thank you for all the great music.
I feel bad I just learned of this amazing band until recently. Like to thank Rick Beato for turning me on to them.
Same with me. Rick Beato has great taste in music and keeps turning me on to good stuff past and new!
Never too late chaps. I envy you having their back catalogue to discover & enjoy!
All right! A Beato fan and now a Swervedriver fan. Rick knows the good stuff, and Mezcal Head is the masterpiece conversion album.
Glad to see new fans. I've been a fan since they debuted in the 90s, but I never saw them live until they reunited a few years ago during the Shoegaze Renaissance. I've seen them twice since then, and I'll see them again in October.
I thank Road Rash back in the 90s xD
Watching this for the 577th time- still not bored of watching this amazing band.
My all-time favourite band from the UK & the most criminally underrated & overlooked! So glad they are still together creating great new music!
I luckily stumbled upon Swervedriver when Raise was first released. That album gave me enough energy to workout longer, surf harder and run through brick walls!!!
Criminally being the main word. Insane that they didn’t get as much love as other bands
Bliss. Bloody beautiful guitars, bass and drums with feel. Songs that take you out there. Hugely overlooked but hasn’t stopped them which is great. Been listening since ‘91.
Sounds so good! The drummer is awesome .
He's the planet of the band, the rest are moons revolving around him.
u know he kinda looks like a slim dino cisarez. i cant spell his last name but the fearfactory guitarist
Yes, but get him a proper shirt.
@@joshuaberthelot2467 Cazares
That absolutely SEARING guitar interplay, holy wow!
One of the best drummers I've seen live, love the SwerveDriver!!!
I was also positively surprised by Mikey Jones performance... Nailed in.
These guys are iconic and I wish they got the recognition they so deserve. They just got screwed by PledgeMusic and I hope they can make another album.

Still putting out rockin' quality music that gets my head movin for over 30 years.
Sound so good, drummer killed it
I think people don't believe they could play such studio perfect sounds just live on the spot
Swervedriver only one ofve greatest bands to ever love..Adam Franklin is an underated guitar player and should go down in history as one of the greatest
Most underrated band in the history of rock n roll. KEXP sound guys always do an excellent job btw! Edit: Video guys rock as well.
Saw Swervedriver play at the Mothlight, Asheville, NC, in 2015. Been a fan since '91 & it was my first time to see them live. Hope to see them again.
He beats those drums like they owe him money!!! Kick ass!!
One of the best bands that are so unheard of! Been a fan since the start!
*We're ready for the next trip to the Satansville.*
This performance made my Saturday night excellent. :)
RICK BEATO , lead me here 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Same
Wow they sound amazing. I really hope they start touring again
This is a happy way to welcome in 2020. Let me grab a beer and get comfortable!
Another great Swervedriver KEXP session.Thank you.
Thank god they are back!
KEXP, thanks for these concerts, they're a nice break from too much news
Adam Franklin has THE perfect slacker voice....he sounds 20 years old and wistfully depressed....
Fantastic performance, and another great album to boot. Thanks, KEXP!
They keep writing amazingness.
Never lose that feeling!!! 🤘🤘🤘
Love Swervedriver !! And love KEXP for bring em back !!
Man...so good
You can always tell a class band by their b sides and outros
Swervedriver have these in spades.sounding as fantastic as ever 👌
Congratulations to everybody involved in it.
This is so hysterically awesome it’s laughably the most serious mistake anyone will ever make not listening to this band regularly. (prerferably stoned)
This is my first time hearing these guys and I'm into it
They remind me of how much I live in dreams
Such a great band. Missed seeing them on this tour, with Failure in Boston, MA. Still upset about that.
First! I love that these guys are still around.
I've heard Rick Beato once mentioning this band as one of his favorites, need to give them a listen
Just amazing...
Increible presentacion!!! Amo a Los Swervies!
I spy a Catalinbread Bicycle delay...
Am I not the only person who finds these kexp videos of bands I loved as a teen and think "oh they look grown up like me now"? Did the same with Ride.
I just want to have a set of friends here in NOVA where we listen to Swervedriver on 11.
man, i do love the swervies and god does too......
And on drums, Johnny Vegas Lennon. Yay!
Great drum sound.
Future Ruins is my Album of the Year. Two great reunion albums for these guys. Much better than the 2 Ride albums, though mbv and Slowdive reunion albums were better.
Ride suck... always have and will.
Best band you've never heard of (seen them three times, first in 1993, Detroit)
Is that the bass player from Supergrass?
it is, Mick Quinn
Supergrass is so great
Just spotted that myself. He's an INCREDIBLE bassist.
Numeri uno
Swervedriver!!!!!
I‘ve read „Skrewdriver“ first. The confusion was real.
oh god, there's always one
Every time I wear my swervie shirt...
@Sursurk - Lucky you.

kexp's peak performance
Sounds nice thanks
una banda del 93 y es increible el baterista como envejecio de mal por no cudiarse
made my day!
Post Covid please come to Montréal.
Jimmy having fun with his phone in future ruins :o) I wonder what was the app he was messing around with ?
TC Electronic Tone Print maybe
Show 👍
*chills
wow, didnt know these very sick!
the Masters . they just get tighter
Is that the Supergrass bassist?

Boss Pedals. Classic.
It's like David Gilmour got on stage with the Grateful Dead to shake his booty
Didn't the drummer play with the Big Sleep?
They didn’t play duel!!
17:39 name of the app pleaseee :o

That's one sexy Les Paul.
“Damn, KEXP, can I marry you?”
Alright. What app is Jimmy using? I think I need to have it.

el baterista esta re acabado y este video es apenas del 2019
ese no es vocalista original cierto?
si original, Adam F
I bet you these guys don't listen to anything similar to what they make
Who does music is an interpretation of a very big collection of music that vicariously makes your mind right. If you make that statement you definitely aren't a musician.
And that's not an attack towards you, music is such an untouched part of life that I love because it's undiscovered and free to roam
why do you have such a delay between recording and posting?like 3 mounths. im waiting for my friend Kelly Finnigan live show at your place please dont make us wait until christmas please

Tone deaf vocals.
so so SO boring. but i do like myself so, sorry notsorry

@@frankbunce They just got more chilled - seriously try I Wasn't Born To Lose You as a lowkey album, it's fantastic
@leeshihad
what you call boring, I call exquisite.
I think this sucks
I think you are one of those 34 dislikes... Well, tell me what kind of bands you like, let's see.
Mick for Supergrass on bass!
adam is doing the best he can with a bass player that can't do vocal harmony to save his life
