Hey everyone. It’s been a while since we posted hasn’t it? Bet you’ve missed us more than I can even comprehend.

We’re all spending the Christmas holidays in France this year. We woke up this morning to snow so it’s starting to look pretty festive here. The house we are staying at is in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by hills, trees and lakes, so it’s very picturesque at the moment. In fact, this is all a bit like Home Alone.. but nobody has been left behind and we aren’t in Paris. In fact, the only similarities are that it’s Christmas and we are in France. Still, I bet there’s not many people in France this Christmas. Maybe 62 million, but that’s not many compared to the world’s population.

We’re going to upload our first music video of the year tomorrow (Christmas Day). It’s been a while since we’ve shown anyone new music so we’re pretty excited about it. The song will be on our new album and it’s pretty reflective of how it’s all going to sound. I’m sure you’ll all dig it anyway.

The video is very festive. We shot it a month ago when we first got some snow in England. The video has absolutely nothing to do with the lyrical theme of the song but I think it works well irrespective of that and we figured the snow was too good an opportunity to miss.. especially as we always planned on sticking something online at Christmas. If you haven’t seen our ‘Making Of’ video, check it out here:

So, tomorrow, make sure you check back on here, swound.co.uk or our twitter and facebook pages for a link to the video. We’ll probably upload it after we’ve unwrapped our presents although I haven’t asked for any this year, I just prayed for peace and love in the world. Haha, yeah right. My Mum better get me shitloads of sweet things or I’m not speaking to her again.
