Biografia:
Os Swervedriver foram uma banda inglesa de rock alternativo da década de 90. Fez sucesso modesto, não entrando na cena mainstream, por divergências com as gravadoras. Lançou 4 álbuns em quase uma década:
"Raise", lançado em 1991, não captou grande atenção, porém o álbum que se seguiu, "Mezcal Head" (1993), continha o seu single discutivelmente mais famoso e reconhecível, "Duel" (single da semana da NME). Sucedeu-se uma tour com os Smashing Pumpkins e os Shudder To Think.
