Five years old today. Still one of my favorite albums.

Really is a classic, I'll defend to the death that it's miles better than To Be Kind.
It and The Glowing Man compliment each other perfectly.
Yep my favorite neo swans.
>Mother of the World
>Avatar
>A Piece of the Sky
I prefer it to the other two, although all are classics in their own ways
Happy birthday doggo
IN
AND OUT
The Seer Returns is probably my overall favorite Swans track
To be kind has nothing that stood out to me
And the rest of the seer ranged from meh to pretty good (In terms of my enjoyment).
What should I listen to next?
FEED ME THROUGH THE POWER LINES
Soundtracks obviously.
Want heavy industrial shit - Filth/Public Castration is a Good Idea
Want Gothic rock/Post-Punk - Children of God/The Great Annihilator/White Light
Want neofolk - Angels of Light
Want experimental drone - Soundtracks for the Blind
Gira has such a varied discography there's something for everyone
Good for you
CoG kinda straddles industrial and post punk swans, my favourite of the pre breakup, besides SFTB obviously
Honestly, I've never liked SFTB.
While it does have a mystic quality to it, it's like they threw everything to the wall to see what sticks. It seems like a huge dump, and a lot of the songs seem unneccessary. It'd be better if they cut out about 10 of the songs.
>five years
>like that's a long time
Just kill me please
its at least 1/6tth of your life
To Be Kind>The Glowing Man>The Seer
Sorry kiddo, but's that's the objective truth.
Actually 1/7th, and ok, you made a valid point, I give you that
(No)
>listen to this album once
>seems like a bloated piece of shit with only 1/5th of it being good
>relisten to it
>seems like a bloated piece of shit
Go away Anthony.
The Seer > The Glowing Man > To Be Kind
shit music
shit album
at least this one time he's right
>tfw people memed this into being the contrarian opinion
TBK > The Seer > The Glowing Man
Old Swans >>>>>>>> New Swans
I don't listen to Nu-AOR or any form of dadrock no matter how it's disguised, sorry
Swans without Jarboe ain't Swans worth listening to
I only felt like this with Glowing Man, even though it still AA Swans' album
swans have at least 8 albums that are better. your taste sucks.
The only time when Jarboe's songs weren't the worst on a Swans album is TGA.
Only White Light is better though.
Wrong
Bad opinion
"Are Swans to 10's kids what Led Zeppelin/The Doors/Pink Floyd was to 90's kids?" An essay.
>measuring your own subject time w/ predetermined and arbitrary numbers
Jar feels like a formulaic New Age singer, never rly liked
