I'm a noise rock fan and I've recently got into Swans. I listened to Filth and The Seer. Is there any other album in their discography that is pure noise rock like Filth? I liked the more theatrical album that is The Seer but I really prefer the straight up noise rock from Filth.
try greed and holy money
cop is probably what you're looking for though and raping a slave is their best only noise single

thanks senpai, I'll check those out. I guess these are their earlier EPs/demos?
>Is there any other album in their discography that is pure noise rock like Filth?
Try the Young God EP which is very slow and noisy.

Alternatively, check out Cop, Greed and Holy Money.
They've started making post-punk/gothic rock/post-rock after Holy Money.

no studio albums except for raping a slave
if you liked Filth, Cop is your best interest then

this is an amazing live album

Yep. I wish the recording quality was better though.
wow didn't expect so many replies. Thanks yall. I keep hearing praise about their other more experimental and less noisier full lenghts like To be kind and stuff. Are they really as good as everyone seems to say?

no
swans pre 1996 > 2010 swans
sftb is the last amazing album they put out, but i'm not saying the new stuff is bad it's just average
glowing man was pretty interesting though

I think this just makes the music even darker and more abrasive.

if you want studio quality noise, try Holy Money/Greed. if you want raw, overbearing audial assault, try Public Castration is a Good Idea.
Cop is just a harder version of Filth but more droney and noisy.

Their first four albums + Young God
>>68628373
To Be Kind is really awesome, the other albums are okay though .

Pic Related is their most aggressive album imo. Also, Holy Money, Greed, Young God EP, and even some parts on Children Of God.
