Waiting for one of those tv adverts:
Q - 'One of the greatest achievements in modern music'
Pitchfork Media - 'Truly Astonishing'
AllMusic - 'A life-changing album'
treeqt. - 'ass'
|
| |
YES MORE SWANS
|
| |
ugh
|
| |
...and all the post punk hipsters rejoiced
|
| |
awesome 2 more hours of this shit
|
| |
Swans have transcended post punk 1000 times over.
|
| |
Is this also going to be a chore to listen to?
|
| |
special guests such as St. Vincent
HOLY. SHIT.
|
| |
OH YEAH BABY
|
| |
aoty
|

"Daily reminder that Young God will be reissuing Swans' discog on vinyl after this."
Damn, I'm going to be so broke
|

Another pummeling experience! Woo!

Going to be a sweet birthday present

|

aoty
|
| |
Heard raw versions of those news songs live, fantastic gig
|
| |
gira is god
|
| |
sounds like a good time already
|
| |
You'd think they wrote enough material on their last album.
|
| |
I was hoping it won't be that long. The length was my only problem with Seer.
|
| |
soundtracks > seer
|
| |
I feel like I'm having a stroke when people lump Swans in with other post-punk bands. But seriously, very excited about this album
|
| |
how do these guys make another 2 hour album in only two years
i'm still not done with the seer jeez
|
| |
I'm excited, but jesus - another 2 hour record? Don't want Gira to overextend himself.
|
| |
Considering how many hours there are in 2 years, it ain't that hard.
|
| |
Another 2 hours of being scared shitless.
|
| |
Fucking christ. Over 2 hours? I prob going to have a really difficult time with this one.
|
| |
I actually loved The Seer, but yeah... pulling off a 2-hour album twice in a row isn't easy. Still looking forward to this, though.
|
| |
the seer was overlong as hell, i was really hoping they'd go back to the more concise and condensed style of my father
probably won't listen to this
|
| |
more scary music! yes!
|
| |
How did I miss this? And you shouldn't doubt Swans, this will be absolute gold for sure.
|
| |
hopefully a lot less LUNACY LUNACY LUNACY and a lot more
.... Good Swans songs?
|
| |
I know, I know, everyone loves the Seer :/
|
| |
Most of their older stuff does IMO
|
| |
Sure this'll be another long, challenging mountain of an album but isn't that a good thing? Music should be something you wrestle with and take a while to digest, not 40 mins of instant gratification that you guys can stream once and then rate
|
| |
gonna stream once and rate it whilst pretending its instantly gratifying
|
| |
i just dont fucking get this band
|
| |
Music should be something you wrestle with and take a while to digest, not 40 mins of instant gratification that you guys can stream once and then rate
on a serious note, no, SOME music should be something you wrestle with and take a while to digest... like Swans for instance... so you are right there... but thats just a niche. Instantly gratifying music is its own. And just because Swans are inherently not instantly gratifying doesn't mean that all of their albums will result in gratification after INTENSE DEBILITATING STUDY
excuse my hyperbole, but I was just gettin' on yo level
|
| |
Okay good point, that was a sweeping statement that dismisses pop music altogether. What I meant to say was that for most people I've ever spoken to, music that takes ages to sink in ends up meaning more than instantly appealing stuff. Swans are such a band, and always have been. Pretty much all of their material is a chore in some way, particularly in their early days and very recently. People complaining about the length or other inaccessible facets of Swans' albums are listening to the wrong band

| |
swans oh man mikey g is a genius
|
| |
gira m/
|
| |
