Criminally underrated. They deserved to be playing stadiums at this stage of their career.

Such a great band that should have hit the bigtime

@PlasticBag4Status 5 ай бұрын

They didn't have the hits for radio or MTV, and were too much of regular dudes, no memorable look or enigma. More of a band to inspire other bands and sound engineers to adapt parts of their sonic palette and hit the bigtime.

@@brutallyremastered4255 nah, he’s using an LP Custom for 90% of the set, then on 99th Dream and Duress he’s using a japanese Squier with a humbucker in the neck Keith Richards style (read their Premier Guitar interview, he mentions both his ‘74 Tele Custom and this one).

Saw the Swervies last night in Adelaide...unreal. Years fell away as the crowd was enveloped in waves of guitar. Quite hypnotic at times, band almost looked as if in a trance, lost in the music. Played all of Raise, some Mezcal Head and newer stuff, onstage nearly two hours. Memorable.

Thank You! (1000x) I saw this tour in Portland, OR. Adam was so approachable and cool. He was sitting alone in a booth and I asked if it was okay to join him. I sat with him for a few minutes before the show and had a short conversation - goodtimes! They opened with 99th Dream and the sound on stage must not have been to his liking. They were barely into the song and he waved his hand for them to stop. He made a few quick comments to the soundcrew about certain levels in the monitors and they were quickly back in action and did the show. (loudasfuk !)

I saw and met these guys in 1993 at the New Daisy Theater in Memphis, TN when they were opening for Smashing Pumpkins. They were really great. I was fucking ecstatic when I looked them up randomly to find this awesome set ready to watch on KZfaq. Thanks for putting this up. BTW.. they closed with Duress there too, but I think it went on for like 20 minutes! That's the way I remember it anyway.

Jason isamu My wife saw that tour in St. Louis and gushes about that show all the time. She and I got to see their reunion show a couple years ago at the Metro in Chicago and it was absolutely flawless. Fun Fact: They all looked relatively the same. As if they had been frozen in a block of ice and thawed for the tour. Same thing when we saw Quicksand a couple years ago.

Yeah, i know what you mean! I was lucky enough to see slowdive on last year's Halloween night, in Detroit. They all looked the same especially Rachel goswell, she was still beautiful, as always? Anyway, i think they sounded better this time around. I was so blown (- ,-)
