Various Failures is the eighth compilation album by American experimental rock band Swans. It was released on March 22, 1999, and contains tracks from White Light from the Mouth of Infinity, Love of Life, The Burning World, and The World of Skin's Ten Songs for Another World. In addition, it contains B-sides, rarities, and previously unreleased tracks.[3][4][5]
The album was re-released in 2000. The second disc of this edition dropped "Can't Find My Way Home", the Jarboe version of "Love Will Tear Us Apart" and the acoustic version of "New Mind".
