Swans - The Great Annihilator review: The wisdom contained in the telepathy of fear Solidified our suffering into the droning sound I still hear. If there's one word to describe Swans, that's it. Throughout their 15 year existence they excelled at writing songs that were the aural equivalent of a black hole they would suck you in and never let go. Though the music evolved radically from album to album, Swans' ability to craft mesmerizing songs and soundscapes never changed. Released January 23, 1995. The Great Annihilator Tracklist. After a three-year break occasioned in part by wrangles with the Sky label, Swans returned in 1995 with a vengeance, as always pursuing their unique muse of dramatic, ever-more textured music. Gira and Jarboe work with a fantastic core band this time out, including returning veteran Westberg, who trades off guitar duties with Steele, at points playing together with him - a magnificent combination.
