Well, its 2013 and there is a new song from 90's shoegaze demi-gods, Swervedriver. I couldn't have asked for a better way to end out the year. This is the first piece of newly record music in over 15 years. Deep Wound is the first single off their new 7 inch. The single also features a remix of the song titled "Dub Wound" done by Mark Gardener of the british shoegaze band Rise . If you read this site frequently you'll know that I have a tendency to speak about this band whenever possible.

I am a sucker for pretty much anything that Anthony Green does. I wouldn’t call it obsessive or to the level of a fan girl, but I’m certainly not in any proud rush to admit how much time I spend involving the music he makes with my life in someway.

Saosin ruled, then he left and I can’t tell you the last time I’ve heard of them doing anything. The Sounds of Animals Fighting was basically RX Bandits, Craig Owens, and Anthony Green and they were a huge cult-ish underground thing for a good while. If you go back further he was in Zolof and the Rock and Roll Destroyer, Audience of One, and Jeer at Rome. He now fronts Circa Survive, which are a massive force. And Anthony’s solo career is booming as well.
