A Shoegaze renaissance classic, first time on vinyl.

The shoegaze renaissance classic The Millia Pink And Green EP by Sway has influenced many a modern musician, shoegazer and non-shoegazer alike. Now, Saint Marie Records gives it the long awaited vinyl treatment. The record now weighs a bit more, thanks to the bonus track ‘Channel’ and its 180gm Coke bottle green transparent vinyl.

Sway began making noise in 1999, in Ventura, California. At the time, they were a four-piece garage rock outfit consisting of Andrew Saks, Amber Carlson, Seth Eubanks, and Vince Alatorre, playing shows and confusing audiences up and down the West Coast with its blurry wall of sound. They’re most known for the shoegaze renaissance classic The Millia Pink And Green EP released in 2003.

Andrew’s songwriting and sonic ideals are deeply rooted in the music he was surrounded by while coming of age: late ‘70s and ‘80s pop music.  Falling asleep nightly while listening to 1980s pop and R&B, and then waking up late at night in a dark dreamlike haze with New Order, Swing Out Sister, Talking Heads, Pet Shop Boys, Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam whispering through his Walkman’s headphones, the sonic memory of such experiences keep Sway from ever giving itself over fully to the traditional shoegaze elements. The quest to recreate these musical properties is what later led Sway to embrace and be further influenced by the blissful textures of dreampop visionaries such as The Cocteau Twins, Medicine, and My Bloody Valentine.

In 2011, This Was Tomorrow was released by Saint Marie Records.  It was Sway’s first full-length release and its last.

Destroyer: Kaputt

the city screams for the guillotine and i pray that they will never find me
my hair shedding everywhere leaves a trail from burdens i can't bear
just a teen wipe my record clean when i become what I dread to be
shut eyelids i was only a kid dip my toes in solace they forbid

tell me what to do
im nothing without you
would you tell me what to do
what is wrong and what is true

pretty face put me in my place as the people celebrate your grace
wont bat an eye as my veins run dry and i leave to a jolly goodbye
don't ascend through the decadent cuz the gods will never be your friend
youre unfit so just submit know that probity is not worth it

tell me what to do
im nothing without you
would you tell me what to do
what is wrong and what is true

no convictions of my own
only words that make them groan
i cant do this all alone
push me i wont say no
