Drunken Swallows have set to release their new studio album “Im Namen des Wahnsinns” on April 19th, 2024, via Metalville Records.
“Im Namen des Wahnsinns” marks the band’s 15th anniversary.
The four punk rockers present themselves with their now typical sound. Catchy guitar riffs, sing-along songs and lyrically a cross-section of life with all its facets.
The development of the Swallows especially after the change of bass player, is enormous. The band themselves announced their aim to return a little to their bloody beginnings. And they have succeeded very well. The mix of modern melodies and the dirt of the garage suits the four northern lights perfectly and is absolutely authentic. Many choruses that burn themselves into the listener’s head on the first listen, crisp riffs and everyone can find themselves thematically on this album. But there are also gentle, serious, calm melodies in the form of ballads on the new album. Swallow’s atypical instruments have been used here, and this is more than worth listening to.
Goosebumps, a thirst for beer, fun and the necessary seriousness in times when it was certainly not always easy to write a punk rock album. The Schwalben did it 100% like this. As they once said themselves: weird times need weird birds. True, when you hear how life plays out in the name of madness.
A punk rock album that really must have its place on every shelf! And because Drunken Swallows are definitely a live band, the upcoming concerts will be more than worth a visit.
