SWANS announce their seventeenth studio album, Birthing, due for release on May 30, 2025. Birthing will be released on triple vinyl in a brown chipboard sleeve, double CD (in a brown chipboard digi-pack), and digitally. Initial pressings of the 3LP and 2CD editions will come with a bonus DVD.
Both M. Gira and K. Hahn have toured extensively solo in the past. Here, they combine their visions in a single, collaborative set of instrumentals and songs, drawing from reinterpretations of Swans music, new songs, and other material.
