30 χρόνια χρειάστηκαν σύμφωνα με δήλωση του τραγουδιστή και κιθαρίστα των Swans, Michael Gira, για να φτιαχτεί το νέο τους άλμπουμ The Seer, με μια δόση υπερβολής για να τονίσει πως είναι το αποκορύφωμα της καριέρας τους. Το The Seer χωρίς καμιά υπερβολή το επιβεβαιώνει και αποτελεί μια από τις καλύτερες κυκλοφορίες της χρονιάς. Κυκλοφορεί σε τριπλό βινύλιο και διπλό cd και στην πλειάδα των έξτρα μουσικών που χρησιμοποιήθηκαν συμπεριλαμβάνονται η Jarboe, που επιστρέφει κατά κάποιο στους Swans και η Karen O των Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Song for a Warrior
There is a growing
Golden light
Flowered and folding
Behind the mirror of your eyes
If an angel could hold up
In his poshed white hand
I know he believes it
Like a bird to the sky
Now you are a warrior
Who will conquer this land
On a horse made of clouds
You will scour the sands
Some people say
God is long dead
But I heard something inside you
With my head to your chest
Oh, then
All the wrong
They say
I have done
Their lies
A seed
Of a million more
Just waiting to become
Send them home
Send them home
Send them home
Send them home
Use your sword
Use your voice
And destroy
And destroy
Then begin again
Golden light
Flowered and folding
Behind the mirror of your eyes
If an angel could hold up
In his poshed white hand
I know he believes it
Like a bird to the sky
Now you are a warrior
Who will conquer this land
On a horse made of clouds
You will scour the sands
Some people say
God is long dead
But I heard something inside you
With my head to your chest
Oh, then
All the wrong
They say
I have done
Their lies
A seed
Of a million more
Just waiting to become
Send them home
Send them home
Send them home
Send them home
Use your sword
Use your voice
And destroy
And destroy
Then begin again
Lunacy
In the mind
of no one
Forming sun
Forming love
Break the chain
Hide within
Innocence
Not innocent
Innocent
In no sense
Eat the beast
Keep him in
Take the blame
Speak the name
LUNACY
Hide beneath
Your monkey skin
Feel his love
Nurture him
Kill the truth
Or speak the name
LUNACY
Your childhood is over (is over)
of no one
Forming sun
Forming love
Break the chain
Hide within
Innocence
Not innocent
Innocent
In no sense
Eat the beast
Keep him in
Take the blame
Speak the name
LUNACY
Hide beneath
Your monkey skin
Feel his love
Nurture him
Kill the truth
Or speak the name
LUNACY
Your childhood is over (is over)
