The Swellers are an American Punk Rock band. Their music draws influence from melodic punk rock bands as well as alternative and indie rock from the 90's. I was pretty surprised the first time I heard The Swellers' self-released first album. Now fast forward to this fall, when their latest (and greatest) album, Ups And Downsizing was released. I was and still am very impressed with the new album which lead me to search and listen to their other releases, and that leads us to my confusion over End Of Discussion (There has to be a better way to describe that, I apologise). Anyways, End Of Discussion is a straight forward skate-punk record with clear influences from NOFX, Bad Religion, Lagwagon etc. It puzzling because I can barely hear any of that in their later releases that are pop punk. Maybe I'm not listening close enough. It is a great album nonetheless, especially "His Name is Robert Paulson" their completely badass ska song.Tracklist:
1. Immunity
2. Anything
