    Very rewarding discography to get into

    You gotta check the live albums, especially some of the “fundraiser” albums that aren’t on streaming

    I finally dove into the last few joints and really digged Birthing. The Beggar and Leaving Meaning were alright but didn’t always hit that mark.

    Still old mon Gira putting together albums of this size is impressive

    Apologies, just now seeing this

    I always think Swans projects are best listened to front to back, especially the last one

    But for the previous two, I really like these:

    The Hanging Man
    Amnesia
    Sunfucker
    Cathedrals of Heaven

    The Parasite
    Los Angeles: City of Death
    The Beggar
    No More of This
    The Memorious

    Yep out now on streaming

    Probably their best live album. Up there with Swans are Dead and Live Rope for sure. Glad you don't have to buy a $200 CD or torrent to hear it now.

    You ever heard The Gate? The performance of Frankie M on there is one of their best moments ever

    Yeah the gate is awesome, haven't heard it in years. Gotta spin it again soon. You really can't go wrong with live Swans.

  • Finally got to cross them off my bucket list last year

    1000% the greatest live performance I have ever seen

    "Newly Sentient Being" live album now available for preorder, shipping Oct. 2 @op

    younggodrecords.com/collections/frontpage/products/newly-sentient-being

    Also looks to be coming out same day on streaming: music.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_m3lQvhPWXdac-ekHO9X11TeAKUh5O7Vp8

    Sounds nuts from the new trailer.

    As far as I can tell, the 2CD, DVD, and 4LP Gatefold are not limited edition. but the boxset that comes with all of them is limited to 1000 copies
