    The songs of The Swimmers feature intensely personal songwriting couched in distorted synthesizer hooks, crushing electric guitars and dark reverb swells. Philadelphia!

    Capitol Years' lilting vocal harmonies and chiming guitars recall the splendor of Big Star and The Raspberries. In a perfect world they would be more popular than the Strokes... with whom they share a certain changa changa guitar sound, but Capitol Years're clearly far more naturally talented. Unforgettable pop hooks galore on each and every song!
