ReviewsHighly Recommended - "...Swervedriver unleashes cascade after drenching cascade of crystal-shatter guitar...it's healing, holy, baptismal stuff...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "This Oxford quartet mixed post-Sonic Youth tuff gnarl with metal-Morricone menace, pachydermal Crazy Horse grooves and acres of billowing low-end.", (8) - Excellent - "...MEZCAL HEAD is a sufficiently grand step ahead of Swervedriver's previous offerings...it's a thing of sheer refined trad rock beauty...", 3 Stars-Good-"...Think Tumbleweed, Torn Jeans, and the Worm in the Bottle...", Ranked #90 in AP's list of the `Top 99 of '85-'95' - "...MEZCAL HEAD has a great feel; Swervedriver know when to relax, when to stay down, and when to turn manic....features some of the most inspired and melodic guitar playing this side of J Mascisville and filters vocals straight out of a Lord Chesterfield advertisement...", "...Swervedriver has a special element so many groups cruising the same territory as shoe-gazer bands lack: an identity..." - Rating: B, "Just as every movement has overlooked artists, every movement has lost classics, and MEZCAL HEAD really is the lost classic of the shoegaze movement, visceral but tuneful, and perhaps the nearest simulation of a rocket launch recorded in the 90s.", "...where other bands treat instrumental clangor strictly in terms of compositional color, Swervedriver understands the visceral excitement of noise--the ways crunch and distortion imply energy and momentum...", "Dark and often beautifully dissonant, Swervedriver's mix of melodic space pop and mind-scrambling noise held appeal for two distinct audiences..."
