“The Glowing Man” is the seventh and longest track from their fourteenth and eponymous album. The song features long instrumental breaks and the loud-soft dynamic that Swans are known for.

"The song ‘The Glowing Man’ contains a section of the song ‘Bring The Sun’ from our previous album, To Be Kind. The section is, of course, newly performed and orchestrated to work within its current setting. ‘The Glowing Man’ itself grew organically forward and out of improvisations that took place live during the performance of ‘Bring The Sun’, so it seemed essential to include that relevant section here. Since over the long and tortured course of the current song’s genesis, it had always been such an integral cornerstone I believe we’d have been paralyzed and unable to perform the entire piece at all without it."

– Michael Gira on the Young God Records website.
