Yes, this is Swans, that band from a long time ago, who recorded beautifully offensive music. No, it's not a lame reunion or nostalgic throwback.
This is a fantastic album, both lyrically and musically. As expected from this outfit, it's dark... really dark. But unlike many previous Swans releases, it's not as violent. Its more of a gloomy, funeral, somber, dark. I think Michael Gira might be a prophet... and if he's not, he should be, because this album is that awesome.
