If one thing is clear from the offset of revelatory fourth album 'There's A Big Star Outside...', it's that Swim Deep is no longer the same band you've always known.In some ways, Swim Deep's fourth album - full of acoustic guitars and floral notes courtesy of a Mellotron keyboard (one of the finest musical exports from their native Birmingham) - has no business being as luscious and evolved as it is. But 'There's A Big Star Outside...' could only have surfaced as a result of such testing years. It takes the youthful dreaming of their debut, and the excitable experimentalism of it's follow-ups, and leads it to a more assured space, aided hugely by the input of producer Bill Ryder-Jones, who became a mentor throughout the journey. "A lot of the album, Bill's drawn out of me," Ozzy nods. "That sense of boldness and not hiding behind the music that he's instilled in me has really made the album flourish, and be what I want it to be. It's a cliché to say, but I feel I've been writing towards this record my whole life." It's fitting that this is the message Swim Deep have arrived at, because 'There's A Big Star Outside...' genuinely does feel like a golden moment for the band. Across more than a decade in the industry, they've revelled in the highs and weathered the lows - but their fourth feels like an album that exists outside of all that. It's one that's less about chasing the next rungs of success and more about really nailing their flag to the mast as artists, as adults, and as a group who were always in it for more than just fleeting scenes and early buzz.
