To Be Kind is the thirteenth studio album by American experimental rock band Swans, released on May 12, 2014. Critical reception of the album was very positive, continuing a string of well-received albums from the band
Swans' universally acclaimed thirteenth studio album, To Be Kind, reached all time highs in the bands experimentation with vocals, instrumentation, and overall sound. Featuring searing drone songs like A Little God In My Hands as well as the suspenseful and bass-heavy Screen Shot, the album itself is unique and a one of the best showcases of the a band’s versatility. To Be Kind is Swans' highest performing album both on the charts and critically, cementing it as a future classic in experimental and drone music.
We (Swans) have recently completed our new album. It is called To Be Kind. The release date is set for May 13, 2014. The album was produced by me, and it was recorded by the venerable John Congleton at Sonic Ranch, outside El Paso Texas, and further recordings and mixing were accomplished at John’s studio in Dallas, Texas. A good portion of the material for this album was developed live during the Swans tours of 2012/13. Much of the music was otherwise conjured in the studio environment. The recordings and entire process of this album were generously and perhaps vaingloriously funded by Swans supporters through our auspices at younggodrecords. com via the release of a special, handmade 2xCD live album entitled Not Here, Not Now.
Swans have always made albums that are meant to get you to sit down and really listen, but with To Be Kind, that seems especially true. The dynamic range on the album is, quite literally, startling.
When apocalyptic alt rock warriors Swans toured around the release of 2012’s monolithic triple album ‘The Seer’, one might conceivably have expected them to play a bunch of tracks from 2012’s monolithic triple album ‘The Seer’. But such petty concerns as ‘promotion’ do not bother band lynchpin Michael Gira, a granite crag of a man who gives every impression that he was in this world before the dawn of history and will continue playing thunderously upsetting rock right until the point the sun explodes, and probably after.
