Drainland

by M. Gira

Drainland cover art

Recorded during the same sessions that produced Swans' 'The Great Annihilator', Michael Gira's solo album 'Drainland' is a deeply harrowing exercise in acoustic bleakness. The record strips away heavy rock instrumentation for incredibly cryptic, depressive neofolk driven by themes of alcohol, darkness, and profound pessimism.
