Zorc2222: Where To Start With Swans ?

BMDrummer 12.13.14	go in order
Jots 12.13.14	older stuff is much better imo, but yeah start in order.
NorthernSkylark 12.13.14	order doesn't really mean anything, guys what order
Supercoolguy64 12.13.14	depends on what you want to hear first, their 80's shit is brutal and upsetting, their 90's material is a bleak mix of post-punk and folk, and their reunion stuff is simply nutters.
Jots 12.13.14	"order doesn't really mean anything, guys" well, no, but I find it interesting to see how a band develops over time. plus I just find it more likely that I'll give each album a fair chance if I just start at the beginning - edit: ah, misunderstood your question. yeah, chronological
Shuyin 12.13.14	tbh id stick to Filth and ignore the rest
NordicMindset 12.13.14	Filth
SharkTooth 12.13.14	Children of God
deathschool 12.13.14	Well, you already fucked up, so do whatever you want.
Avagantamos 12.13.14	their first album
Avagantamos 12.13.14	then the second one, then third, until you hear em all
Relinquished 12.13.14	Filth
AngryNeighbor 12.13.14	with that one with the dick on the cover
zakalwe 12.13.14	Start by taking a step back, see where the bands coming from and take another listen before concluding it's old man shouty twaddle. Then bin it.
Asdfp277 12.13.14	JohnnyOnTheSpot: he means that just saying "order" doesn't mean anything. Like, chronological order? reversed chronological order? alphabetic order? by the color of the artwork?
Jots 12.13.14	gee, what could I have meant
Asdfp277 12.13.14	i honestly thought you meant "from the lastest to the earlier works" lol, then your other comments made it clear but still lol
Jots 12.13.14	nah I just misunderstood what he was asking. I thought he literally meant that listening in order serves no purpose, mah bad
Asdfp277 12.13.14	ohh okko lol (yooo', swans have 13 LPs i thought they had more, i might find the motivation to check them out since they're not that many omg)
oisincoleman64 12.13.14	The one with the 4+ average
Jasdevi087 12.13.14	Start with Filth and work your way though, don't stop even if you hate the first 4 albums cause you never know. Don't do what I did and start with Greed, that was a bad idea.
