VERMIN - - LP, November 2009

Vermin is the fourth and (as of this writing) final Swimfail album... the most accessible, heavy, and polished release. Blends heavy industrial metal with catchy melodic hooks, electronic elements, dense layers of distorted samples, and grunge influences to create a beast of an album that you won't soon forget. Sound-wise, this is the definitive Swimfail production.

Watch the short documentary The Making of Vermin!
