Some songs won't wash away as time and tide pass. They hover in the ether until they return when the moment is right. "Silk," the 1993 debut single by the Sway, is one of those rare tracks. Now available for a new generation, this evocative work, once described by The NME's Ian Fortnam as "Evocative of vintage U2," returns to its rightful place in the hearts of music fans.
The Sway taps into the days when anthemic guitars, grand harmonies, and raw feelings ruled the airwaves. The song is filled with rough-and-tumble passion only a band on the cusp of something can capture. It encapsulates youthful ambition, cloaked in a sound as fetching now as when it first arrived.
This release has both a sense of nostalgia and, at the same time, discovery. So whether you were there in '93 or just tuning in now, The Sway invites you into their sonic world, which never stopped resonating.
