The Burning World

The Burning World was originally released in 1989 and marks the first and last major label record for Michael Gira's Swans. The album was produced by Bill Laswell, a pairing that Gira claims was not a good fit and was forced upon him by the label. Despite Gira's own distaste for the record, its reputation has grown over the years and is now considered a fine effort from one of the most important and longest lasting New York post-punk groups. Long out of print on CD and fetching ridiculous sums on eBay, Water is proud to bring this title back into print and allow a new generation of Swans fans to hear it for the first time.
