i saw them finally a few years ago in boston at The Paradise, i dreamed theyd reunite for 10 years, they finally did and it was an amazin show!

@lethrneck4 i can only hope that we get a reunion again at some point. 08 was a great summer.

[lethrneck4]

the greatest 90s band that no one ever heard of,,,another reason they are awesome!

[silverghozt]

@lethrneck4 totally agree.

just wow, this song rocks at about 4a.m. sunday morning, it gives me hope..... and thats a powerful thing on sundays after the weekly turs night to sun morning bingeathon

[derelictAZ]

this is a much better version of the song than that of the album. way better.

[silverghozt]

this song at this performance was one of my better musical experiences ever... so sad it's likely from a band that won't ever tour again.

[sugarfootjones]

there is this band called laserhead from gainesville that sounds alot like swervedriver only a little more punk but...this is intense

[silverghozt]

you should check out swervedriver's catalogue. they are an amazing and underrated band. one of my faves ever. mezcal head is one of the better albums of all time.

i saw them opening for Smashing Pumpkins in 1993 and they finished their set with Duress - didn't really care for the Pumpkins show after that! ;-)

I saw these guys in Salt Lake and they haven't lost a step. If I had the cash I would've caught them in Hollywood as well. They came out for an encore and finished with Duress. I thought I lost it when they played Deep Seat as part of their set, but Duress was truly the best!

[silverghozt]

thanks. agreed my camera work sux, but it's so hard to be motionless with swervedriver playing you know? agreed on the audio though...my casio camera must have a terrible mic, or the volume just overwhelmed it.

[crashsite000]

thanks for posting. too bad the audio isn't a little better...and your camera work reminds me of cloverfield....but I REALLY think its looks great still. thanks again

[robertmitchem]

Does it really get better than Duress? Honestly? Going to see them at the Bowery next week! Can't wait!

[silverghozt]

thanks, man. i saw them twice last weekend, and duress really brought back the memories. they are still amazing! -zach

props to whoever posted this video!! damn...major dejavu! i couldn't even watch this all the way through...i've been a major swd fan since the beginning, so nice to hear those guitars grinding, meshing, growling and crying again!
