Young God is the second EP by the American experimental rock band Swans. Released in 1984, it was issued through the record label K.422. Although also referred to as "Raping a Slave" and "I Crawled", the band officially recognizes it as Young God.[4] Similar to Cop, the cover art features a notice stating that the record is "designed to be played at maximum volume."
