Swill is an album by the American punk rock band Ten Foot Pole.[2] [3] The band's first album, it was originally released under their former name, Scared Straight until later copies of the album changed it to Ten Foot Pole. The band released the album on their own label.[4] Joey Cape from Lagwagon makes a special guest appearance on the last track, which is a cover of “Joy To The World”. The tracks “Life” and School” are re-recorded and expanded versions of songs that appeared on previous Scared Straight and compilation releases on Mystic Records.
AllMusic wrote that the album "is flatly produced and lacks immediately memorable material, but is refreshingly devoid of mainstream pretensions, especially for a band of their time and place (southern California, 1993)."
