The Burning World

Album by Swans ‧ 1989

The Burning World is the sixth studio album by American experimental rock band Swans. It was released on May 15, 1989, through record label Uni Records, the band's only major-label release. Co-produced by Bill Laswell and band leader Michael Gira, the album features a major stylistic shift from their past releases, being very tuneful and accessible compared to the bleak, industrialized sound from their records. It received a mixed reception and was a commercial disappointment; the band was dropped from the record label following its poor performance.
