about

Swine Tax - Screensaver

With the recent addition of Euan Lynn on synth, ‘Screensaver’ sees Swine Tax further sharpen their agitated, hooky rock sound. Propelled by burned-out guitars and a breakneck rhythm section, the track’s sardonic lyrics express the existential terror of being cut off from the outside world.

Speaking on the lead single, the band said: “Screensaver is about losing your password. It’s an in-joke about our technophobia, but it also attempts to get to the heart of a more widespread feeling of alienation that’s fostered by technology. Lyrically we took a more direct approach than is often applied to the issue, by painting a vivid picture of a familiar subject we sought to highlight the everyday absurdities of a life lived online. We didn’t then imagine how relevant the track would be during this global pandemic - many of us are gawping at screens all day, slowly going insane and totally reliant on technology to communicate."

Very promising rock band. I like that the singer's delivery remains cool and commanding even when the band gets thrashy. Like Shirley Manson of Garbage fronting a punk-metal band. Would probably appeal to fans of Wolf Alice, Moaning Lisa and Doe. Art Fin
