Michael Gira formed Angels of Light after the conclusion of Swans in 1997. 'The Angels of Light Sing 'Other People'' was released in 2005, produced by Gira and featured Akron/Family. On the making of the album, Micheal Gira says 'This album is different in many ways than what I've done in the past. There's no general band 'sound' here. The instrumentation is arranged in each song to fit the subject. Each song is its own world, a place for the people in the songs to live. I intentionally eschewed long instrumental passages, crescendos, that sort of thing - I've done enough of that, and I'm tired of it. The songs say what they have to say, then end'.
