With the help of producer and mixer team of Dave Cooley and Tony Hoffer, Silversun Pickups created ‘Swoon’. The songs are taut, embellished in places with string arrangements that compliment the band’s trademark distortion. Aubert’s lyrics narrate personal traumas as the album weaves a tapestry of beauty and aggression.

Silversun Pickups will release the single ‘Panic Switch’ on June 29th to coincide with the tour.
