Zero Hour record label released so many great albums.. _99th Dream_ still gets heavy rotation in my house & captured a sound unlike any other, really. I caught a live Swervedriver gig in NYC that was definitely one of the best live shows I've ever had the privilege to hear. Such beautiful use of dissonant harmonic distortion.. Swervedriver shoulda / coulda been headlining. But so it goes..
