discuss everything Swans, Gira, Jarboe, Westberg, and others
what are your hopes for the new album?
Swans General
My main hope for their new album is that it isn't total fucking shit like the rest of their discography.
has anyone read this? Its pretty fucking great; just wished they focused more on the making of the albums themselves as well as the touring and personal relations between the band
is this accurate
no; its outdated af
START FROM THE BEGINNING
Swans is one of the best artists to do this with
drainland and ABIAER not being on here is a sin
I hope it's somewhat similar to the last incarnation, but it probably won't be. I'm happy Ben Frost will be contributing to the record, along with the other members of the last line-up. I'm just annoyed I spent over $100 canadian on option 3. Fuck canada.
Haven't you heard, Gira said it's gonna be more vocal/lyrics oriented this time, instead of just abrasive sound.
yeah i remember reading that in that long post on the young god records site.
should be interesting to see where he goes with it musically.
The collaboration list is incredibly fascinating, but I'm not too sure. I expect a more neofolk sound if anything similar to AOL
I need to see them live again
Have the seer on now
I just want their entire discography to get fully reissued.
where would glowing man fall in this chart?
Somewhere between the Seer and Soundtracks for the blind I imagine; it has a much more meditative and ambient twist on the hard rock vibes of TBK
Its a shame that besides 3 songs (one of them being the title track) The Glowing Man gets increasingly boring after each listening, while the opposite can be said about Tbk or The Seer
what 3 songs? I actually feel the same way about glowing man i just cant listen to most of the tracks on there anymore.
i have been searching for the pdf of it but no luck. i am realy interested
thank god my gf discovered them to me.
I hope the new album is at least as fun to listen as it is to listen to TBK
