Snipe Likes: The Swansea Recreation Centre

From amidst the hum of new-bands-on-the-internet, this gem of a song plops into our lap. They may have an unwieldy name, but in “Aquatic Finesse” The Swansea Recreation Centre have written a real keeper. From the same fuzzy territory as Broadcast or perhaps Electrelane, it builds beautifully to an indelibly catchy two and a half minute outro. Promising stuff.

They play at the Goonite club, at London’s Buffalo Bar, on July 21st.
