Description:My Dying Bride has been the leading light of doom metal since the debut album â??As The Flower Withersâ?? was released on Peaceville Records back in 1992. Influenced by acts such as Celtic Frost & Candlemass, the band's heavy atmospherics have carved a huge worldwide following over the years & they remain at the pinnacle of the genre & one of the most instantly distinguishable metal bands. Originally released on Peaceville in October 1993 & recorded at Academy Studios in Yorkshire, â??Turn Loose The Swansâ?? saw the arrival of long-time session musician & classically trained violin & piano player Martin Powell. The album also saw the band stretching & pushing the grandiose textures & epic doom dynamics to create an opus of previously unrivalled atmosphere & stark emotion. Fans & critics have since hailed â??Turn Loose The Swansâ?? as the blueprint for the new Gothic Metal genre, with many often still citing the release as among the defining albums of the bandâ??s distinguished career. This edition of â??Turn Loose The Swansâ?? is presented on single black vinyl, now with cover artwork from the original CD edition. -
Recorded and mixed at Academy Studios (West Yorkshire, UK) in June & July 1993. Digitally remastered at Transfermation (London, UK) 2003. Made in the U.K. Issued in a 6-panel digipak with clear tray (no booklet). Lyrics written direcly on panels.
"Turn Loose The Swans" is the groundbreaking second studio album by British doom metal pioneers My Dying Bride, released in 1993 on CD format by Peaceville Records. This record marked a significant evolution for the band, blending death-doom heaviness with gothic and classical influences, including haunting violin passages and poetic lyrics. Tracks like "The Songless Bird," "Your River," and the epic title track showcase their unique approach to melancholy and atmosphere. My Dying Bride, formed in 1990, are revered as one of the leading acts in doom metal alongside Paradise Lost and Anathema. Their innovative sound has earned them critical acclaim worldwide and a dedicated fanbase over decades of activity. Peaceville Records is renowned for its commitment to extreme music genres such as doom, black, and death metal; it has been instrumental in launching legendary bands like Katatonia, Darkthrone, Opeth?and of course?My Dying Bride.
