Children of God 2CD

Swans' "Children of God" turns the band's history on its head, shaking off the relentless fury of earlier works in favor of a more introspective sound. The tension between vulnerability and aggression is stark, especially in tracks like "Sex, God, Sex," where unsettling desires and haunting melodies rub against one another, provoking discomfort and reflection. This is not merely a pivot but a declaration; an assertion that Swans is not to be confined by any one style or expectation.
