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.

I prefer it to the other two, although all are classics in their own ways

Happy birthday doggo

IN
AND OUT

>>74820514
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

>>74822025
Soundtracks obviously.

>>74822025
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.

To Be Kind>The Glowing Man>The Seer
Sorry kiddo, but's that's the objective truth.

>>74822939
(No)

>>74822939
>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

>>74823189
Swans without Jarboe ain't Swans worth listening to

>>74823110
I only felt like this with Glowing Man, even though it still AA Swans' album

>>74820514
swans have at least 8 albums that are better. your taste sucks.

>>74823223
The only time when Jarboe's songs weren't the worst on a Swans album is TGA.

>>74823288
Only White Light is better though.

>>74823156
Wrong

Bad opinion

"Are Swans to 10's kids what Led Zeppelin/The Doors/Pink Floyd was to 90's kids?" An essay.
