if gira had eulogised himself at a modest length, this album wouldn't be half as unlaughably hilarious

and that is probably the main thing it has going for it

If he was less of a prick maybe he'd trust the rest of us to do the eulogizing

Maybe if he wasn’t in an ouroboros of being Swans trying to be Swans

‘“the big three” is referring to the Debut EP, Filth, and Cop.‘

Second spin and this is clicking big time. The Beggar Lover (Three) might be my new favorite Swans song. Unforming, The Beggar, Ebbing, and The Memorious are also all amazing. It's not out of the question for this to rise to a vastly different but totally equal level to The Seer for me.

This album got me a little too existential so I guess it’s doing its job? Swans being Swans?

I want the next Swans album to have four 80 minute long tracks - and then disc 2 starts right after that.

I’d be foolish to rate this album after one listen, The Seer took a long time to hit, but that first listen yesterday was not encouraging in the slightest. I feel this one is going to take even longer before I know how I really feel about it.

I thought this was every bit as interesting as The Seer. Not as overtly exciting, but unfurling in gorgeous and at times unsettling layers. Also, after hearing the full album twice, whoever said this is his Blackstar hit the nail on the head.
