Swayback has recorded a cover of the Velvet Underground's I'm Waiting For the Man. Westword: "Fooking brilliant. Those were the exact words that came to mind when I heard the Swayback's recent cover of "I'm Waiting for the Man." The band's treatment and Eric Halborg's vocals more than do justice to the original" Brooklyn Vegan, Largehearted Boy and Ryan's Smashing Life were listening as well.
