The NYC band's debut EP "Funhouse for Fiends"
showcases 5 cristalline pop gems, hummable but never
banal melodies, and vocals that sound compassionate and
sincere. This music has the potential to resonate with a
lot of people.

"...a debut worthy of
the effervescent, matching outfit 60's pop they clearly
adore...keeping
things tethered to terra firma is a sonorous Stephen
Merritt/Jonathan Richman vibe that steeps tracks such as “Souvenir”
and “Everything Is Coming Around” in a tenor of toothsome
melancholy.”

CMJ 2009 Review: “sunny pop sensibilities
similar to Teenage Fanclub and Julie Ocean with a coat of ‘60s pop
rock….the sweet vocal harmonies and melodies of Swimclub’s songs
stayed with me…”

"According to their website,
Brooklyn's Swimclub have 're-dedicated themselves to the art of
selling out' on their debut release....If this is the sound of
selling out, bring on the corporate ogres."
