Children of God

by Swans

Children of God cover art

'Children of God' stands as a pivotal transition, forging a new sonic identity by contrasting the monolithic, industrial brutality of the band's early work with melodic, acoustic- and piano-driven ballads. This stark duality is mirrored in the album's thematic explorations of religious fervor, sex, and power, delivered through the visceral interplay of Michael Gira’s harrowing baritone and the prominent, ethereal vocals of Jarboe.
