Description: | Sex Swing is a British experimental rock band formed in London in 2015. The band comprises of six members, including Dan Chandler on vocals, Jodie Cox on guitar, Oli Knowles on keyboards, Colin Webster on saxophone, Stuart Bell on drums and Jason Stoll on bass guitar. The band members had played together in various other groups before forming Sex Swing, and their experience and expertise in different genres, including noise rock, avant-garde jazz, psychedelic and doomy stoner rock, post-punk, krautrock and experimental music, have helped them to create an unique sound that defies easy categorization.
Sex Swing's music is characterized by heavy, distorted guitar riffs, propulsive drumming and dissonant saxophone lines, all anchored by Stoll's driving bass. Chandler's vocals range from deep dark whispers to screams, adding to the band's intense and sometimes unsettling atmosphere. Their self-titled debut album from 2016 received critical acclaim for its raw and uncompromising sound. The album was followed by "Type II" (2020), which saw the band refining their sound and incorporating more electronic elements.
In addition to their studio work, Sex Swing is known for their explosive live performances, which often involve improvised sections and extended jams. The band has toured extensively in the UK and Europe, sharing the stage with artists such as Swans, Hot Snakes, Thurston Moore, Liars and Lightning Bolt. With their sturdy approach to music and their willingness to experiment with different genres and sounds, Sex Swing has established themselves as one of the most exciting and boundary-pushing bands in the UK's rock music scene. This live-album ??Grade A Peanut Sauce? was recorded at the Sonic Whip Festival in Nijmegen, The Netherlands in 2022 and was their first continental European show since covid. The band played a storming set! - LIVE AT SONIC WHIP 2022Recorded live at Sonic Whip Festival, Doornroosje, Nijmegen, Netherlands, 6 May 2022. |
