ADAM FRANKLIN AND SWERVEDRIVER DRIVER

After the show we asked him what he was doing here, and he said he liked the tracks we'd sent so wanted to check us out live. Are you guys feeling the love? You just put a bit of reverb on it. But around that time I was getting more into demoing the songs more completely on the four-track. July 31, Here we are in the waning hours of July , and the Songs Project is finally available to the wider world.

And that track seemed to fit in nicely with everything else. So hearing Space is Deep by Hawkwind … we would sit down and stare at the record going round and round as we listened to it — at five years old!

Interview: Swervedriver’s Adam Franklin

We opened with 'Autodidact' off the last record and there were all these girls down the front singing along to the chorus when it came, which was pretty amazing - rather than people only responding to the older songs like 'Rave Down' or 'Never Lose That Feeling' so that was great to see. And spent about two weeks laying stuff down.

A friend swervedrver mine played on the album and then the last time I saw Luke Sutherland we played with Mogwai up in Glasgow, maybe three years ago and he was there. We had a day off and we went into the studio and arranged to record there. Maybe a month, three weeks. K, but you could get bootlegged copies of the film from France.

Ricky Gervais, from The Office, used to book the bands there funny enough, back in the day. For me [recording software is] just a means to get stuff down.

Back then, we'd have rehearsed in a garage, paid to record a asam, then pressed up a seven-inch on our own which we'd send to labels and the music press. One time we were just outside this bar smoking or something and we were talking about Jim.

From the tribute compilation A Houseguest's Wish: Larry Wallis from The Pink Fairies played guitar on the record and I've always loved that particular version of the song. I think that, with falsetto, that was a blind alley in fact. It's a really cool song.

But then, of course, Nevermind sort of kicked in again and before you knew it, a few weeks later it was at number one! Afterwards, people were coming up to us and saying it was like we'd never been away and the sound had advanced a bit. Initially, to a degree, because it was difficult not to have that kind of harder vocal.

There was never the gothy edge [with Swervedriver]. Tono Magana asks what you think of some of the bands that are taking inspiration from Swervedriver adwm the bands that came out around the same time as you.

When it was first introduced it was a cool thing and it has been taken over by the majors. MySpace, for example, is a good thing. It was nice to have a chat with him.

Yeah, I was kind of born hating that sound.

This biographical article about a British singer is a frankli. Eventually people suggested I should release records under my own name and so in we finally released the first Adam Franklin album 'Bolts of Melody' but although my name was on the front it was very much a band record.

A Soundworld of Rain Released: Adi, yeah Adi [Vines] was the bass player. Exciting new Orlando, FL power-pop quartet Amely is thrilled to release the tracklisting and artwork for their debut EP Then we split up Shake Appeal and kind of reformed because I had written [songs] that seemed more And then when you try to recreate it a month later I love the acoustic version. The basic bed of it all is a good guitar and a good amp.

There are so many different platforms and ways of selling music nowadays.
