Swim or Drown: Dutch metallic hardcore group unveil ‘Trapped’ 7”

Jason Hesley

Dutch metal-fueled hardcore quintet Swim or Drown returns with a new 7”, Trapped, out today (13 December 2023) via WTF Records on vinyl and digital formats.



Trapped features two of the heaviest hardcore numbers Swim or Drown ever produced to date. The title track tells the story of frontman Jan’s struggle with his inner demons, a theme that was previously explored in the title track of Torment, the band’s last EP. The cover art for Trapped depicts a skull behind bars with chains around its mouth, representing the story. The other track, “Human Scum,” expresses the band's frustration and anger towards humans for greedily destroying nature, animals, and other human beings.



The tracks were recorded, mixed, and mastered by Sander Oldersma at 3181 Recording Studio.
