If you are into gooey, retro-infused slick psych-pop, you’ll be instantly drawn to Swim Fan’s latest single, ‘Cruise’. Bathed in brilliant synth work and lo-fi drum grooves, the record is an absolute earworm, made even better by the group’s layered, dense vocals, providing the perfect lyrical companion to an already banging arrangement.
The track is a reflection of the band’s ethos: having a good time and enjoying life while also taking it easy and working hard. It is the perfect soundtrack for a night drive down the Sunset Strip, and it captures the subtle melancholy of cruising alone at night. The release is tied to a larger, upcoming EP, signalling the Swim Fan’s return to the music scene after almost two years.
