Swans - To Be Kind (2014)

Let no one say Michael Gira doesn’t have something to say and the will to say it: 2014′s To Be Kind is the third album from the Swans since he reassembled the band in 2010, and it’s his second album in a row that spans two discs and runs over two hours. Gira likes to work on a large musical canvas, and he gives himself all the room he needs on To Be Kind...

To Be Kind (2014)

How To Destroy Angels > Welcome Oblivion (2013)

Welcome Oblivion doesn't swing the same industrial hammer that pounded Nine Inch Nails into some unforgettable singles, it's often every bit as dark and unsettling... and with a full album's room to explore, the band has now grown into a more distinctive and memorable shape. Even when it's slightly off the mark (and let's face it, not even NIN's legendary output has always been dead-on), this record is still a compelling experiment and a chilling lights-out listen.
