We are Swirlpool
SWIRLPOOL is a Shoegaze project led by Thomas A. Fischer, Markus Kraus and Christian Atzinger. The German band was established in 2017 and remains loyal to the maxim „sounds better with reverb and distortion“. After the EP ‚CAMOMILE‘ (2018), the singles ‚SPINNING IN REVERSE‘ (2020) and ‚CINNAMON SUN‘ (2021) and several live shows, the debut LP ‚DISTANT ECHOES‘ is now ready to be released.
Expertly mixed in the present by RIDE legend Mark Gardener, the result is the hauntingly beautiful debut DISTANT ECHOES. Skillfully arranged layers of sound and noise gently draw the listener into an astonishingly accessible Shoegaze world that unfolds over ten hyperdelic tracks, drifting into sublime cosmic heights while also luring into dark sparkling abysses: nostalgia, teenage angst, adult depression, paranoia, transformation, ecstasy.
