"They Spent Their Wild Youthful Days In The Glittering World Of The Salons is the second full-length album by Boston, MA, indie-rock band Swirlies. Originally released in April 1996, three years after their previous full-length, this was the group's first major recording effort after a change in half of Swirlies' lineup. Working again with engineer and co-producer Rich Costey, the band developed a wider scope of sound than the shoegaze and lo-fi pop which characterized their earlier releases, as Salons makes heavier use of synthesizers, dance beats, and other electronic sounds, drawing comparisons to groups like Stereolab and their Krautrock forebears." - Taang!
