Album Description

User Album Review
When Michael Gira picks up his paintbrush and raises it to a canvas, he conjures an atmosphere incomparably foreboding. With a mind as unrelentingly dark as Gira’s, fans can rest assured—or hidden under your covers—that the latest reincarnation of Swans and the project’s newest album, leaving meaning. is black as the night.
However, there is an impossibly visible modicum of light at the end of the tunnel this time around; an iridescent optimism that we’ve yet to experience in its full capacity from Gira in the past (except for certain cuts from White Light From The Mouth of Infinity and his Angels of Light side-project). That being said, leaving meaning. sees the ever-evolving experimental rock outfit do just that—evolve. Gira, with the help of many talents, has concocted Swans’ most beautiful yet most bleak sounding record of its 30-plus years existence.
However, as mentioned prior, there’s an uncharacteristic amount of hope and beauty perforating this nightmare. With this unexpected turn, the provoker of gloom delivers warmth and reassurance—to an extent— bridging the elusive gap between beauty and unsightliness that even a band like Swans had failed to reconcile, until now.
