Music video by Swim Deep performing Fueiho Boogie,Here is Fueiho Boogie! This song felt truly heavenly to record.
It was inspired by our trip to Japan and finding out about the fueiho law making it illegal to dance in clubs….This law has recently been lifted! Don’t mention it.
We’re all tall with excitement that this is out there. Shout out to our mad producer DREAMTRAK for the sonic spaghetti junction on this one.

Swim Deep: The best elements of classic indie from the last 30 years, but sent racing into the future with a knack for a timeless hook and stadium-shattering chorus. It's dream rock, but so beautifully brought to life. Playing: LEEDS UNI UNION STYLUS GIGWISE STAGE,  2 MAY, 22:45

Something’s switched in Swim Deep. In the space of two years, they’ve gone from everyday escapists to big thinkers. ‘One Great Song And I Could Change The World’ is the definition of tongue-in-cheek – from title to snappy synth solo, it’s a a risk-taker with one foot on Planet Earth – but it’s just a hint of where this five-piece are heading.

Like with the severe turn ‘To My Brother’, this is a bolshy, focus-shifting song possessing one simple message: Things can get better, blue skies are ahead and there’s zero point in getting bogged down in reality. “Is this love?” asks Austin Williams. “Have I said why I love the sunrise? It’s cause it’s only gonna get lighter.” The frontman said we might be on the brink of a “summer of love”.

Birmingham band Swim Deep have a single out, here is the B-side to their current single online.
with the recently unveiled songs ‘To My Brother’, and its flipside ‘Hotel California’ now available. ‘To My Brother’ was the first new material from the band since their 2013 debut album ‘Where The Heaven Are We’. Frontman Austin Williams recently described the band’s new music as “psychedelic sex music”, comparing the record to both Kanye West and Fleetwood Mac.
Williams revealed the big ambitions he and his bandmates have for the album. “We wanted to radicalise chart music,” he said of the band’s mindset going into the studio. “So we’ve taken [Kanye West’s] ‘Yeezus’ and [Fleetwood Mac album] ‘Rumours’ and put them together with acid house.”

The band recently played four intimate gigs in March and April. In addition to those headline gigs, Swim Deep are among the first acts confirmed for Live At Leeds 2015.
