Originally released on Creation Records in 1991, Raise, the debut album by Oxford UK’s Swervedriver, quickly became a defining sound of early 90s underground alternative rock. Energised and inspired by the guitar heavy sounds of My Bloody Valentine, Dinosaur Jr, Husker Du and the like, Swervedriver perfected their own shimmering, guitar-clashing juggernaut with a uniquely British flavour firmly intact. Last month, Swervedriver announced a special appearance at The Village Underground in London on October 24th, which quickly sold out. The band have now added further dates to their Raise at 35 tour, and will also now take in Bristol, Oxford, Leeds and Glasgow. The pre-sale for tickets commences on the 18th March and you can sign up here.
“Join us in celebrating 35 years of ‘Raise’ this October & November We’ll be performing the album in its entirety, from needle-down to run-off groove.” (singer & guitarist Adam Franklin)
