PT Cruiser Related Stories
A. I was on a road where there were 3 PT Cruisers parked, one of them with the license "PT COBRA"
B. I was walking through the parking lot of McDonald's and there was this PT CRUISER just stopped right in the middle of the parking lot,blocking traffic. I went to give the person inside "THE LOOK", i was shocked to see a girl and 2 fratboys smokin cigs, while the driver looked at a porno mag!
Do you have any PT Cruiser or Parking lot stories?

British psych website reviews Itemlord!
http://www.terrascope.co.uk
Dancing out of the swamplands, we are suddenly bathed in light as the bright sunshine pop of The Swims greets our ears with a smile and the sound of flutes, memories of the Beach Boys floating in our heads. This sixties pop sound is continued throughout the entire of “ItemLord”, the band’s latest collection, a sparkling jewel of a record that has melody a-plenty as well as some shimmering organ, crunchy guitars and harmonies to die for. After the warmth of opener “All is Nice”, the short sharp “Ladyfist” is swirling power-pop, whilst “Descend into my Cape”, turns up the Garage meter, a stomping rocker with all the right moves, the tune immediately followed by the sweet acid twist of “Pile of Features”, the contrast between the two songs highlighting the creativity on offer. Consistently engaging, the whole album is an aural pick-and-mix, a cornucopia of sounds and flavours, all held together by some tight playing, great songwriting and a sense of fun that gets your feet moving and the your whole being smiling, add to this the fact that the collection seems to get better every time you play it and you have a disc that could be the essential summer purchase.

Piles of Exclusive tracks by ANd The Moneynotes, The Menzingers, Tigers Jaw, Kid Icarus and heaps more! We contributed our HIGH OCTANE cover of the already HIGH OCTANE "Out Of OUr Tree" written by 60's band The Wailers, not the Mad Marley wailers of the reggae packed 70's.
B'BB'B'BUT! Say you live outside of the Scranton area(highly unlikely, but lets just say) and you want to hear our HIGH OCTANE cover of The Wailers but couldn't even dream/fathom driving all the way to the electric city to obtain it. Well my friends, luck has just slipped you the tongue and a free song!
WE THE SW!MS ARE OFFERING THIS SONG FREE TO DOWNLOAD(or DOTLOAD as i like to say)
http://www.wallriderecords.com/digitaldownload/01+Out+Of+Out+Tree+(revision).mp3
STARTING RIGHT.......... NOW! NOw! Now! now! now(i was trying to simulate echo) A DAY EARLY?! BUT ITS NOT EVEN WECKOOD STOW DAY YET!.....das right! Just call it friendship, its all part of the positive quest the Sw!ms have put you on!
Now, you're thinking, wull.... what do around mid day tomorrow. Calm down,lemme help.
TODAY!(record Store day) we'll be whacking off instruments LIVE
@ The Gallery Of Sound In Wilkes-Barre(S. Main St.)
we go on at 3pm SHARP, but theres tons of bonus bands playing from 1:30-6:30
Ends With Disaster, Panacea, SIlentreatment,etc...
ALSO! The Beatles asked me to tell you that all single disc Beatles cds will be 9.99 and with purchase get a limited edition Lithograph! So, if you played the crap out of Rubber Soul in the 90's like i did, its your lucky day!
NICE ASS DAY OUT! Love you all!
-Langor/SW!MS
P.S.- both of these luxurious locations carry our new album ITEMLORD!
