Raised by Swans is an indie rock band from London, Ontario, Canada. The
band consists of singer-guitarist Eric Howden, guitarist Alex Wright,
bassist Andy Magoffin, and drummer Brady Parr.Raised by Swans latest album “No Ghostless
Place” is a sort of eulogy/anthem for a broken heart.
Melancholy lyrics punctuated by falsetto are sweet and sugary despite
being full of remorse. The music is carried by shimmering single-note
guitar melodies that weave through pop-infused drum beats and bass
lines. While the guitar chimes and echoes through a melody, the bass and
drums are sparse and deliberate, adding dynamic punch. The vocals sit
in the mix with the guitar acting as an instrument as often as they are
narrating a story. This is the first release by London’s Raised by Swans
in five years.
