Swallow You

Swallow You is the opening track on Circus Mort's debut and only EP, Circus Mort, released in April 1981. It utilizes synth and dissonant guitars for a funky, rhythmic track just over 3 minutes long. Like early Swans releases, its lyrics have repeating of phrases and off-kilter lyrics.

Music
The song opens with a drum intro, and features a repetitive bass and synth line, before the guitars come in and play some chords. Michael Gira's vocals have a faux British accent like other No Wave artists at the time. RateYourMusic user Bruscolino describes it as "tribal and stunning".
