Departures - Swimming

Full review to follow. To be honest, a week ago I hadn't heard of Winnipeg's Departures, either. But Stuart Berman's review in last week's Grid caught my eye and when I saw they were hitting town this week I reckoned to check 'em out. It seems like word hasn't gotten around yet, but once their mix of college rock and tension/release postpunk sounds sinks in a bit I think they'll have some more curious onlookers when they make it back.
