Yellow Swans biography, Yellow Swans discography
We have some very exciting new...This album is the culmination of months of work with home recording genius Emil Amos (Grails, Thee Holy Son), and also features the work of Daniel Voss and Drucifer (Leviathan, Xasthur, Lurker of Chalice) on Engineering and Mastering duties respectively.The artwork is courtesy of Jamie Potter (one third of Bonus), and thanks to Weird Forest it will be recreated lovingly as a gatefold LP.In honor of the release of our 3rd studio album, we are heading out on a whirlwind one month tour of the USA.Go to the SHOWS page for dates.LPs featuring us and Mouthus coming out in time for tour (hopefully).FI in the UK and the studio recording is being made available through Weird Forest.We should have all these releases available at our shows, as well as...Gerritt, Axolotl, and Yellow Swans LP on Root Strata.Yellow Swans have returned from our month and a half sojourn across Europe.We had an amazing start with the Free Noise Tour in England, followed in short order by the brilliant Sonic Protest Festival in France, and things ended quite brilliantly with the fantastic Venn Festival in Bristol.In between were several weeks of good food, seeing old friends, awesome squats, great music, and some seriously good times.We're currently back in Portland, and getting down to business and pleasure.Sincerest apologies to the kids for all the bar shows, but it is harder than you'd think sometimes to put on an All Ages show in this town.In addition to Yellow Swans, both of us are going to be busy with some other projects in the next few months.We are back in Portland and doing well.We are back in Portland and in the process of putting together our next studio album for the fine patriots at LOAD.Warmth on DNT Records
...EP made of ambient and psyched out jams from recent times, to be released on CD by Acruela and on LP by Three Lobed.This latter release is in anticipation of an upcoming return to Europe.After finishing our year of international travel we thought we ought to take a little break.Of course, with us that means writing new songs, releasing a live record, a collection of rare cassette sides, and a handful of collaborations, all the while preparing for our longest US tour yet.LOAD Records , we thought it would only be right to travel out and see some of the country.With our fingers crossed, here is preview...Pop, and we have more merch than gear now...Hopefully the new jams we've been working on all summer, and the insane folks we'll be playing with, will collectively entice you to come out and say hi...At All Ends is the third record in the Yellow Swans vast body of work.This record is an assured record of chiming drone and heady pelvic sky fuckery.New sounds emerge from the YELLOW SWANS camp that are more hushed, and whisper with the logic of deep space.Guitar lines sketch out a melodic vision that stupifies with hypnotic repetition.Elements of lush drone stretch the proceedings in vast strokes.Yellow Swans veer towards krautrock territory with this new record, and it will go down in the big books as their most beautiful and vibrant record thus far.Yellow Swans come up with their second studio record.The last few years have seen the Yellow Swans coat the planet with live dates in the U.Australia, New Zealand, and Europe.This record was originally released in Austrlia by the Numerical Thief label, and comes to you on LOAD in a remastered format.The new master will allow you to hear the whispered hush, disjointed polyrhthymic attack and squealing how, in a new manner, as the Australian version is a bit noisier.Yellow Swans is an American experimental electronic noise band from Portland, Oregon.The band consists of Pete Swanson (vocals, drum machine, electronics) and Gabriel Mindel Saloman (guitar, feedback, electronics).Their debut album garnered much recognition and soon the band were invited to perform shows across Europe, Australia and New Zealand.LOAD Records the same year, and then released on 12" vinyl by Weird Forest in 2006.Yellow Swans, where the "D" can be substituted for any word beginning with the letter.They have used several different names over the past six years, as can be seen in their discography, but are most commonly referred to as simply Yellow Swans.Currently, the duo are touring for the release of their third studio album.Neither of us have any intention to stop playing music anytime soon, but we will not be playing or performing with each other again."Goslings Split 7" (Not Not Fun)

Note: For a comprehensive list of releases, see the band's official website.This page was last modified on 21 April 2008, at 23:46.Yellow Swans formed in Portland, OR, in 2001, with the intention of combining punk's confrontational stance with the aggressively electronic sound of glitch.Despite frequent tours and gigs with artists including Tussle, 7 Year Rabbit Cycle, Xiu Xiu, and Japanther, the Yellow Swans recorded their debut album in 2003.Write a ReviewYour TakeTell the world what you think about Yellow Swans!AEC One Stop Group, Inc.Visit other CNET Networks sites: Select SiteBNETCHOWCNET.If the platform is Macintosh, use the Macintosh div.On a very gray day I met Pete and Gabe from the Yellow Swans at their Oakland warehouse.Gurgelstock catalogue, we were on our way to enjoy a good syrah and some vegan pizza.Gabe neglected to bring the means of pay for himself.Yellow Swans releases due out this winter solstice.Deep Listening never felt so good.Tell me about your label.And we thought that this was a way of getting them exposed.They don't live near anything.P: I think we have twenty seven, twenty eight things that are out.Then I think we have another thirteen or fourteen things that we finished that are waiting to come out.Why do you have so many?When we find one we like we have the opportunity to release it by ourselves or someone asks us.It makes sense because it is an isolated piece of music that has it's place along side everything else that we do.For the average music fan out there, what's the title to start with in the Yellow Swans catalogue?G: Well it depends on where they're coming from.It's not easy to listen to, but at the same time it covers a lot of territory.From there each release tends to be very different.Our music changes quickly and you're going to see something different by the time you see us live anyway.Why did you make the sleeves for one of your records out of carpet?G: Partly because it was just reusing material that was given to us for free or relatively cheap.On the back of your CD it says "The cops started kicking and down came the clubs.We never realized we stole the dream lives of rich men.Can you talk about that?P: I'm not sure how deep I should get into it.There's part of me that's really invested in the mystery.Gabe and I are really invested in politicism and I'm more invested in metaphysical approaches towards politicism....Essentially I feel like there are really a lot of significant changes happening in society that are more about subconcious currents as oppossed to aggressive actions.G: The record in a lot of ways is very literal.It's about the idea that there's this war happening, that's completely physical, outside of me and yet psychologically it's happening inside of me.And how do I respond, how do I bring the unreality of it into reality?Your music has such a strong presence of noise which a lot of people view as dissonant.If you're trying to have a connection with people why do you have all of this dissonance?You also talk about this sense of isolation with your own political views and how it relates to others.G: On that level I feel that that's the activism of our band.How I feel that it works is that, hopefully if we're succeeding, we're creating a space where people experience music as something that they haven't experienced before.That there is always potential for change or some other voice to be heard.That's how language traps us.As much as I love dance music, pop music and the communal effect that it creates to share that experience with other people, I also feel that that language, that music limits you because we know it all ready.We know the scales, We know these elements.Album: Bring the Neon War Home Label: Narnack Review date: Dec.And esoteric, underground Bay Area noise duos conjured urgent, apocalyptic masterpieces.Neon War, however, is the sound of Yellow Swans seeing clearly.The production is incredibly crisp and clean, and many of the movements are driven by prominent drum machine rhythms, which are an oddly concrete element for such an immaterial, abstract band.The mechanized percussion harnesses their drifting noise clouds, tethering the chaos into a dense, claustrophobic space, much like Ministry used to do.Nine Inch Nails acolytes would die for.Bring the Drug war home.Decades from now, Bush will be just another history textbook monster, a bad memory, but this record will remain, and remind.
