#Naturvennligevibber. Sink or swim ble utgitt i 2019. Det norske rockebandet Sløtface hadde to år tidligere gitt ut sitt første album, Try not to freak out, som de også fikk spelemannpris for det året.
Sløtface ble etablert i 2012, da under navnet Slutface. Men Facebook utestengte bandet med et slikt navn, og derfor kom endringen til Sløtface.
Bandet mistet to av sine opprinnelige medlemmer i 2022, men vokalist Haley Shea fortsatte å fronte bandet alene, sammen med et musikk-kollektiv av fire andre musikere.
Den mørke teksten i Sink or swim tar for seg klimaendringer og plastforsøplingen, og postulerer at heretter handler det om overlevelse. Politikkens muligheter er et tilbakelagt stadium.
Teksten
Mostly we repeat «We’re tired»
Back and forth
As we come home in the dark
And email «Sorry for the late reply»
Back and forth
My brain keeps getting away from me
To the point where when I close my eyes I see
The million, million plastic particles
Covering the ocean floor
Floating back and forth
Back and forth
This is not the fall I was expecting
Warm winds
This is not the fall I was expecting
Warm winds
Too warm for October
It’s too warm for October
I agonize
But I don’t agonize enough
Keep seeing my grandchildren die
But I can’t seem to turn the lights off
As I leave the room
And I leave the room
Believe me, baby, I leave the room
This is not the fall I was expecting
Warm winds
This is not the fall I was expecting
Warm winds
It’s too warm for October
It’s too warm for October
It’s too warm for October
It’s too warm for October
It’s not politics, it’s sink or swim
It’s not politics, it’s sink or swim
It’s keeping our head above water
It’s not politics, it’s sink or swim
It’s not politics, it’s sink or swim
It’s keeping our head above
Keeping our head above
Keeping our head above water
It’s not politics, it’s sink or swim
It’s not politics, it’s sink or swim
It’s keeping our head above
Keeping our head above
Keeping our head above water
