Ride乐队贝斯手史蒂夫·克维拉尔特的首张个人专辑《吞咽》是一张优美而深沉的九首曲目的合集，将早期M83和Sigur Rós的黑暗质感音景与 Boards Of Canada式的电子光泽相结合。它还收录了Sonic Cathedral厂牌同门艾玛·安德森（前Lush和Sing-Sing乐队成员）和维里蒂·苏斯曼（Electrelane、MEMORIALS乐队成员）的客串 vocals。
《吞咽》在过去五年中，在Ride乐队的专辑制作和巡演间隙缓慢而稳步地拼凑而成，也许正因如此，它带有一种轻微的反乌托邦、《银翼杀手》般的感觉，反映了它被创作时的临界空间。尽管专辑的大部分是器乐演奏，但这些忧郁、月光下的音轨中注入了大量的力量和情感。当歌词出现时，潜在的愤怒和政治倾向浮现出来，放大了专辑的黑暗强度。这在 closing track《摩托艇》中最为明显，他在其中叠加了朱莉·谢尔顿的 polemic 诗歌《同一条船》中的文字（“他们说我们都在同一条船上，但我不同意”）。据史蒂夫说，这些简单的拒绝之词“完美地捕捉了我们时代的现实”。然而，正是与两位客串歌手的合作将整个作品联系在一起，并为完成的专辑铺平了道路。“在几次失败的尝试后，我开始完全怀疑这个项目。它毫无进展，”史蒂夫说。“然后，在黑暗中，艾玛联系我，告诉我她找到了自己的声音，问我能否给她发一些曲目。来回发了几个文件，在录音室里待了一个下午后，我们就有了《孤独小镇》和《瑞士航空》。”同时，Electrelane的维里蒂为歌曲《信使》添加了 vocals，改变了这首曲目。马修·西姆斯，现在是她在MEMORIALS乐队的队友，后来将负责混音完成的专辑。
“《吞咽》的结果比我希望的要好得多，”史蒂夫热情地说。“我多次对它失去了爱，我甚至想把它叫做《无爱》。但那样的话，那就不是整个故事了。”

Ride bassist Steve Queralt’s debut solo album Swallow is a beautifully brooding nine-track collection that combines the darkly textured soundscapes of early M83 and Sigur Rós with an electronic sheen reminiscent of Boards Of Canada. It also features guest vocals from Sonic Cathedral labelmate Emma Anderson (formerly of Lush and Sing-Sing) and Verity Susman (Electrelane, MEMORIALS).
Swallow has been slowly but surely pieced together between Ride albums and tours over the past five years and, perhaps as a result, has a slightly dystopian, Blade Runner feel that reflects the liminal spaces in which it was created.Despite the fact that the majority of the album is instrumental, there is plenty of power and emotion poured into these moody, moonlit soundtracks. When words do appear, an underlying anger and political slant emerges and amplifies the album’s dark intensity. This is most notable on the closing track, ‘Motor Boats’, where he overlays words from Julie Sheldon’s polemic poem The Same Boat (“We’re all in the same boat they say, but I would disagree”). According to Steve, these simple words of rejection “capture the reality of our times perfectly”. However, it was the collaborations with the two guest vocalists that tied the whole thing together and paved the way to the finished album. “After a few false starts, I had started to doubt the project altogether. It was going nowhere,” says Steve. “Then, out of the darkness, Emma got in touch to tell me that she’d found her voice and could I send her some tracks. A few files back and forth and an afternoon in the studio later and we had ‘Lonely Town’ and ‘Swiss Air’.”In the meantime, Verity from Electrelane had added vocals to the song ‘Messengers’ and transformed the track. Matthew Simms, now her bandmate in MEMORIALS, would go on to mix the finished album.
“Swallow has turned out so much better than I had hoped,” enthuses Steve. “I’d fallen out of love with it so many times I was thinking of calling it Loveless. But then, that wouldn’t be the whole story.”
