Mute Swimmer - Same

Review by Elisa Forsgren

Mute Swimmer's latest album, Same, is a hauntingly beautiful collection of songs that showcase the artist's unique blend of folk, indie, and experimental music. The album is a departure from Mute Swimmer's previous work, with a more stripped-down sound that allows the listener to fully appreciate the raw emotion and vulnerability of the lyrics.

From the opening track, "Waves," Mute Swimmer sets the tone for the album with haunting harmonies and sparse instrumentation that build to a powerful crescendo. The album's standout track, "Same," is a haunting meditation on the human condition, with lyrics that are both deeply personal and universally relatable.

Throughout the album, Mute Swimmer's voice is a powerful instrument, conveying a range of emotions from heartbreak to hope. The sparse instrumentation, which includes guitar, piano, and occasional percussion, is perfectly suited to the intimate nature of the lyrics.

About Mute Swimmer

Mute Swimmer is the principle musical project of the Berlin based british artist Guy Dale. He has described his work as being 'governed by grace, doubt and sabotage'. Dale is as fascinated with stretching the songwriting form as he is in dismantling it. As such songs are approaches with the tactics of an artist. In 2013 mute swimmer became a full band - with Bernhard Bauch (drums), Felix Koch (trumpet) and Nicolai Schorr (bass) - whose distinctive styles are in evidence throughout the highly anticipated Mute Swimmer album "Second".
