Royal Swan

Born from a cabin-fevered recording experience at Devil's Bridge in Wales, Royal Swan harks back to a fantastical medieval England. Without being overtly political, Royal Swan also details the tension inherent in modern day Great Britain - the sense of isolation and resentment the United Kingdom has fostered versus trying to retain a sense of pride in one's own country. In classic PHOXJAW style, Royal Swan enlists a range of local musicians and sound-experiences, adding to the band's core unique sound. Devil's Bridge Cottage leaves its mark on the record, fostering PHOXJAW's claustrophobic recording experience and physically shaping the sound, with each band member recording in separate rooms (and guitars in an airing cupboard) IA rare group who combine humour, quirk, intrigue, a huge range of influences, and power, PHOXJAW are a band who'll never stop having things to say. Having toured with Black Peaks, Pagan, Zakk Sabbath's cruise, Loathe and plenty more already, PHOXJAW have begun making waves in the UK underground rock scene.
