The Swans EP is the first release by the experimental rock band Swans.
Although rooted in the no wave scene and different from the Swans' forthcoming releases in its prominent use of a saxophonist and relative absence of brutality, the EP remains an intense listen, demonstrating the early stages in the evolution of the violent, repetitious and noisy style that the Swans' earlier releases would become known for. The EP also remains an interesting insight into the roots of experimental noise rock.
It was remastered and reissued appended to the 1990 reissue of the follow up Filth LP on Michael Gira's own Young God label.
