I saw Swans yesterday and it was great and all, but what is it about this music that brings out such autism in people?

Some were unbearable, there was a guy right in front of Gira who I was I shit you not jumping up and down and flailing his hands full power for two and a half hours non stop.

I wonder what trip he posts under
>>
>>68627894
people dance at live gigs, its nothing new dumbass
>>
>>68627894
It's not that I don't believe you anon, but I couldn't imagine Gira seeing that and not having a word with him
>>
>>68627921
he may have been genuinely autistic, it was pretty crazy
>>
>>68627894
I've seen them on this tour and the TBK tour last year. Same density of spergs both times.
>>
>>68627963
I was surprised but Gira was super chill the whole time. It was my first time seeing them so I don't know if he usually smiles during songs, but he did yesterday. He even kind of smiled at that guy as TGM was rolling out.

>>68627951
it was like someone was performing exorcism on him
>>
Dunno...

I saw them live in Budapest few days ago and everyone in the crowd acted just fine. They were just standing around politely and observing the show.
>>
>>68628003
I've noticed that too. He's not that violent angry dude anymore but still kinda scary looking.
>>
>>68627894
Swans shows are really loud and dynamic, its repetitiveness makes the whole show feel like some avantgarde ritual. I saw them 2 days ago and there were lots of drunken faggots who would belong in a metal concert. When the Glowing Man started many started to dance like they have a seizure.
I love how Gira can bring people in ecstasy, but I don't think it's the type of music you should get drunk to.
>>
>>68628152
>I love how Gira can bring people in ecstasy
I kind of left with that feeling after thinking about it for a bit. The way people acted forced me to go through half of the show with my eyes closed because it was distracting, but I don't think any of it was disingenuous. That says a lot about the music itself.
>>
>>68628152
I was there. I haven't seen any drunk people at that show but maybe that's because I was in front.
>>
>>68628004
Then you didn't look back. Drunk weirdos were having a seizure at the Glowing Man where I was standing (I had to be next to the sound engineer, because I forgot to bring hearing protection, but thankfully some cool dude gave me a pair of plugs halfway).

Ahogy mondtam, elől nagyon visszafogott hangulat volt. A füldugó valóban nem ártott, sok szerencsétlent láttam, amint kétségbeesetten fogdossa a fülét 5 perc után.
Egyébként remek koncertet hoztak össze, bár azt hiszem az új dalok nem jönnek át annyira élőben, mint a To Be Kind-turné alattiak. Számomra örökké a 2014-es a38 lesz az etalon. De tudtam utána egy-két szót szólni a Girához, úgyhogy már ezért is önmagában megérte.

I think he read that Gira likes to kick people's asses and was trying to piss him off to say he got in a fight with/got the shit beaten out of him by Michael Gira
>>
>>68627894
I saw them 3 weeks ago, same thing happend. but besides all the retarted flailing and forced movement the crowd was pretty shitty anyway
>>
>>68628539
Nekem pont azért nem jött át a koncertélmény, mert egy jobb fajta füldugó híján az egész torz volt a fülemben, hátul amúgy sem túl nagy élmény hallani egy koncertet, mindemellett nem telt el 10 másodperc anélkül, hogy lengőajtónak használva engem ki-be mászkálnak a tömegben a részeg idióták. Emiatt ez az "eksztázis" elmaradt, és rossz szájízzel, illetve enyhe fülzúgással mentem el. A Sunn O)))-t jobban élveztem, mert ez mind nem történt meg, füst miatt amúgy sem tudott senki közlekedni, vagy odamenni a bárpulthoz, én pedig O' Malley lábai előtt álltam tátott szájjal.
>>
>>68628695
Kár érte... Az a38 pedig volt már, hogy osztogatott füldugót. Először láttad őket élőben?
>>
>>68628800
Mindkét koncert első volt, valószínűleg nem lesz több ilyen egy ideig, mert ez a két koncert elvitte minden félretett pénzem (nem vagyok Pesti). Afféle 18. szülinapi ajándék magamnak.

>>68628278

To be kind took what the Seer did and built upon it.

Glowing Man just doesn't do enough different for me personally. Wouldn't see it live again

What a surprise, Anon
>>
>>68627894
Anyone know when they're coming back to the states? I know they're switching their lineup after this tour.
>>
I actually fell asleep during a SWANS concert because I've narcolepsy. True story.
>>
Yeah, shit happens.

When I saw them in Austin a few people started moshing when the main riff in the glowing man came in and Gira stopped the entire song to tell them to stop.

Didn't really put a damper on the things though, they dove right back into it without missing a beat.

Also, during the same song there was this extremely attractive like model tier chick across the balcony area from where I was who was just dancing like mad and Gira just stared at her with a huge smile for a good 15 seconds. Was pretty hilarious.

How can they be so based?

Probably his next rape victim :^)))))))
>>
>>68627894
Michael Gira became a lot more chill about that, these stories about jumping people in the crowd belong in his past. Just don't start a moshpit and Gira doesn't bother, I mean he dances himself like a sperg for some songs.
Btw I've seen them as well on their tour and I was surprised how down to earth and humble Michael Gira is.
>>
>>68632944
is this post post-ironic.
>>
>>68631291
oh no, people are going to have fun at a death grips concert?
>>
>>68631291
if you worry about that than you're honestly the biggest sperg.

More post than Swans and GY!BE combined
