Swain, formerly known as This Routine is Hell, have a new EP out in March this year. Last week they uploaded the title song as a preview:
I didn't like it on first listen but it's growing on me. By Swain's standards, the beginning is almost cheerful, melody and riff-wise anyway.
It's the good old sort of "what if "modern day" Ceremony was a bit darker and more hardcore"-direction from these guys, and it's not bad at all. It lacks some of the punch that featured on Howl, but then again that's the only one I've listened to extensively, I have yet to get to know The Verve Crusade and Repent. Repeat. better.
I guess for me, if this is anything like Howl, I'll be a happy camper.
