█ █
█ The Names' Swimming isn't the sharpest arrow in █
█ infamous producer Martin Hannett's quiver, and the █
█ Belgian group indeed wallowed in the obscurity that █
█ journalist Jon Savage claimed they didn't deserve, █
█ but the record still fares rather well as a █
█ second-tier post-punk record. Starting off with a █
█ relatively upbeat first side and eventually drifting █
█ into a not exactly inventive morass of lumpen tempos █
█ and a rather off-putting level of mopey meandering (a █
█ sequencing scheme conceived by the producer), it █
█ certainly isn't the most listener-friendly record of █
█ its era. Like a number of bands that favored their █
█ rhythm sections and keyboard dressing over guitar █
█ pyrotechnics and over-emotive vocals, the Names truly █
█ come to life when they find a sticky groove capable █
█ of scaling tall buildings and allow it to take center █
█ stage ("Life By the Sea," "Discovery"). Otherwise, █
█ the songs risk losing their tether and dissipate. █
█ Reissued in 1991 as Swimming + Singles, the attentive █
█ archivists at Factory Benelux tacked on "Calcutta," █
█ "Nightshift," and "The Astronaut," a trio of decent █
█ to great singles that add significant value to the █
█ overall package. Along with another key 7" release █
█ that can be found on the Spectators of Life █
█ compilation, the bonus tracks show that the Names █
█ were much better at the singles game. The █
█ Factory-issued "Nightshift," a nocturnally glum tune █
█ that somehow manages to glisten in a manner similar █
█ to Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart," stands █
█ as one of the Names' standout moments, if not their █
█ absolute best. And don't miss the B-side, "I Wish I █
█ Could Speak Your Language," which impressively mimics █
█ the "no midrange" features of PiL's Metal Box with █
█ deep lows and piercing highs, along with a █
█ Lydon-unlike romantic lyric. (Les Temps Modernes █
█ reissued the reissue in 2000.) █
