Gli album di inizio Novanta degli Swans, ovvero White Light From the Mouth of Infinity e Love of Life, saranno ristampati e distribuiti dall’etichetta di Michael Gira, Young God, a dicembre per il mercato americano, mentre Mute si occuperà della distribuzione internazionale. I due dischi verranno venduti separatamente oppure in un unico box set disponibile sia in vinile, sia in formato CD, che verrà accompagnato da un poster e da un album di outtake e registrazioni live.
A dare l’annuncio, lo stesso Gira tramite una lettera pubblicata sul sito della menzionata etichetta. Ve la riportiamo di seguito dopo lo streaming del classico Love Will Save You.
Hello, thank you for listening to our music. I hope it gives you some joy and pleasure.
I am pleased that you have discovered our music through this medium. I view this experience as the equivalent of previewing a record in a record store in days of old. However, if you wish to experience the music in its’ fullest form, I would strongly encourage you to acquire it in a physical format you can bring into your home. Not only will you then be able to experience the richest version of the music sonically, but you will also be afforded the opportunity to enjoy the tangible artwork, which was conceived in tandem with the music, and serves as a further portal to experiencing the total conceptual and spiritual and emotional content of the work we have labored, lovingly, to bring to you.
I love you,
– Michael Gira / Swans / Young God Records
