2010 album from the veteran Alt-Rock outfit. After years of pursuing a lightly different path with his band Angels Of Light and recording and producing a diverse roster of artists for his Young God label, Michael Gira has reconvened his legendary group Swans. As he says: ''This is not a reunion. It's not some dumb-ass nostalgia act. It is not repeating the past. After five Angels Of Light albums, I need a way to move forward, in a new direction, and it just so happens that revivifying the idea of Swans allows me to do that.''
