Surfer Blood – Swim
Surfer Blood are a 5 piece indie rock band from Palm Beach, Florida, their debut CD, Astro Coast has just (January 19th) been released.
Surfer blood have built up a huge amount of buzz over the last year, this song Swim, is instantly catchy, and was a favourite of the blogosphere and featured on many top tracks of 2009 lists.
It features catchy hooks, sing along vocals, and a stadium filling rock sound. It will fit into every scene, both the hipsters and the dull rock boys will happily enjoy it together.
I have yet to hear the rest of the CD, but based on this track it sounds like it is going to amazing.
For the record, the name Surfer Blood came from the intense dislike of the surfer kids in Florida, making their high school years hell. If you are reading this, you can probably relate.
