Swervedriver was my favorite band of the 90's and early 00's. Finally saw them at the Masquerade in Atlanta (thx Kip!). One of those shows where I recognized every song. The show kicked butt. Best lp's: Raise, Ejector Seat Reservation, Mezcal Head. But, these guys have gotta put down the cigs, man - We want ya around for a long time!

Long time Mezcal Head fan... recently got into remaining Swervedriver albums and Adam Franklin solo material. Wish I had checked it a lot earlier. Really like the last Swervedriver and love the two solo albums. Looking forward to hearing the third release! Favorites from Adam: - Bolts of Melody (single) - It Hurts To See You Go - Theme from LSD - Remonesland - Two Dollar Dress

Amazing show last night in DC. Adam is criminally under-appreciated.

Spent Bullets is up there with Adam's finest work - some UK Swervedriver or solo dates would be greatly appreciated!
