1) Swift, formed in 1998
Swift hail from the "Camel City" (Winston-Salem, NC) and formed in 1998, they quickly established themselves in the southeastern heavy music scene. With influences ranging from Foo Fighters and Radiohead to Pantera and Metallica, the band wanted to mesh the excitement and power of aggressive music and the beauty of melody and song structure as well as focus on their stage show to captivate from a visual standpoint. In 1999 they released their debut EP "Thoughts Are Thought," which had sold a stunning 2700 copies without the benefits of any distribution. This impressive amount of sales naturally garnered the attention of the major labels.
Labels including the likes of MCA and Atlantic expressed an interest in signing Swift, but not wanting to sacrifice their creative control left Swift unable to sign away everything they had worked so hard to achieve. They decided to forge on, independently, determined to succeed and to achieve that success on their own terms. So after touring and promoting throughout 2000 and 2001, Swift decided it was time to work on a new record. Both Swift and Tribunal Records realized that their goals of achieving success on their own terms were identical, so a partnership was born.
After three extremely successful releases for Tribunal Records, SWIFT now returns with the latest installment into their ever-expanding legacy. After the release of A Communication Manual guitarist/vocalist, Taylor Mabe, was added to the SWIFT line-up. With this new blood pulsing through it’s veins SWIFT decided to “go for broke” and write an album of material that knew no boundaries and pulled from their wide array of influences. Oddly enough, we ask everyone to forget all you know or may have ever heard about the band, SWIFT. As their new album, The Absolute Uncontrollable, is unlike any SWIFT album you may have ever heard before. Old school “metal” breakdowns, catchy melodies, jaw dropping guitar solos and Gary Forsyth’s volcanic vocal barrage will surely turn every head and convince any skeptic that SWIFT are one of the most overlooked and under-rated bands in the underground scene today.

Enjoy The Silence
Swift Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Come crashing in, into my little world.
Painful to me, pierce right through me.
Can't you understand, oh my little girl.
All I ever wanted, all I ever needed
Is here in my arms. words are very
Unnecessary, they can only do harm.
Vows are spoken, to be broken. feelings
Remain, so does the pain. words are
Meaningless, and forgettable.
All I ever wanted, all I ever needed,
Is here in my arms. words are very
Unnecessary, they can only do harm.
Enjoy the silence
The lyrics of Swift's song, Enjoy the Silence, capture the essence of the need for silence in our lives amidst the chaos of the world around us. The opening lines, "Words like violence, break the silence," convey the idea that words can be powerful enough to disrupt the peaceful state of silence. The subsequent lines, "Come crashing in, into my little world. Painful to me, pierce right through me," suggest how the sound of words can be intrusive and painful, overwhelming the listener's senses.
As the song progresses, we hear the singer's belief that words are unnecessary and can often do more harm than good. This is especially evident in the line, "Words are meaningless and forgettable," which underscores the idea that sometimes silence is more effective in expressing one's feelings than words. However, amidst this perspective, there is a subtle recognition of the power of words, as seen in the line, "Vows are spoken to be broken. Feelings are intense, words are trivial." It suggests that, while words can be trivial, they can also convey deep emotions, and even the best intentions can be broken by the reality of human nature.
In conclusion, Enjoy the Silence by Swift is a poignant reminder of the importance of silence in our lives. It captures the beauty of silence and the consequences of overusing words. The lyrics suggest that words can be overwhelming and painful while silence, on the other hand, has the power to express emotions more effectively than words ever could.
