Description:
"Trip To Marineville" is a landmark release by the influential post-punk band Swell Maps, now available in the Vinyl Maxi format. Originally released in 1979, this album captures the raw energy and experimental spirit that defined an era of British underground music. The record features a blend of punk urgency, avant-garde soundscapes, and lo-fi production techniques that have inspired generations of musicians. Standout tracks like "Midget Submarines," "H.S. Art," and "Gunboats" showcase Swell Maps' innovative approach to songwriting and their ability to fuse chaos with melody. This edition is brought to you by Secretly Canadian, a renowned independent label known for its diverse roster and commitment to artistic integrity since 1996. Secretly Canadian has played a pivotal role in launching careers of acclaimed artists such as Antony & The Johnsons, Anohni, and Jason Molina.
Swell Maps were formed in Birmingham in the mid-1970s by brothers Nikki Sudden (Adrian Godfrey) and Epic Soundtracks (Kevin Godfrey). Their pioneering work bridged punk rock with experimental sounds long before it became fashionable; their influence can be heard across indie rock scenes worldwide. Despite their brief existence?disbanding after only two albums?their legacy endures through countless bands citing them as inspiration.
