Description
'Filth' is the punishing debut album by Swans, originally released in 1983 and regarded as a cornerstone of New York’s no wave and industrial scenes. This remastered edition reintroduces the record in all its brutal, unrelenting glory, complete with two reproduction live posters and a download code. Raw and confrontational, 'Filth' captures Swans at their most primal, wielding crushing basslines, pummeling drums, and searing guitar noise that embody pure sonic violence.
With lyrics steeped in misanthropy, urban decay, and the bleakest aspects of human nature, Swans crafted an auditory assault that remains as jarring and immersive today as it was upon release. Michael Gira’s commanding, tortured vocals ride the barrage of sound, creating an experience that is both cathartic and harrowing. 'Filth' established the template for Swans' confrontational aesthetics, influencing generations of experimental and extreme music. This reissue honors the album’s legacy while reasserting its relevance in the modern noise and industrial rock canon.
