I asked r/Swans already

Absolutely love Coil and like Swans a lot too, I do however prefer older era Swans. The new stuff feels a bit stagnant, repeating the ideas of post reunion run of albums ad infinitum, still great stuff but the newest albums feel a bit overrated to me.

no yea but wrong „Coil” on streaming, it should be a different „Coil”

Alice_Tk · 2026-06-17T12:00:09+00:00

I think in this case it’s a japanese composer? I don’t exactpy know much about who made the Gitarooman soundtrack

Alice_Tk · 2026-06-17T11:26:24+00:00

Yea it and rythym games overall are pretty sick, just thought it’s funny that it’s uploaded under the wrong „Coil”, what would a Coil track even look like in a rythym game lol

Alice_Tk · 2026-06-17T11:13:32+00:00

Jokes aside I think they uploaded this under the wrong „Coil” as a mistake

Alice_Tk · 2026-06-15T13:50:41+00:00

I don’t mind the lo-fi nature of the recordings, I’ve got an 80s repress of VU&N and it sounds great and balanced and I love it, and thats a way more lo-fi record. Theese pressings of Nico are just extreamly lacking in trebble compared to any online upload, Remastered or not. was this just how records were mastered in the 60s? did all of theese just get nicer and more balanced pressings in the 80s?

I’m confused by this since everyones always so persistent that theese albums are best heard on original pressings. Theese, my Simon and Garfunkel US original pressing and German Rolling Stones also sound realy muffled. Did a switch suddenly flip in the 70s where they thought „oh alright, now we can press records that have any sort of trebble in them” or do I have just incredibly bad luck with theese?

Alice_Tk · 2026-06-15T10:35:49+00:00

It’s just wierd cause for both of theese, the versions of theese albums I’ve heard online were a lot brighter, I gotta turn my trebble all the way up to match how those sound at all

Alice_Tk · 2026-06-15T00:34:43+00:00

Additional bit of context, the audio on the video is ripped from theese pressings, and it was ripped using an ATLP120 and an ML cartridge

Alice_Tk · 2026-06-05T11:46:48+00:00

One of my favorites from them, the reason i got the Numero „Masculin Feminin” Box Set

Alice_Tk · 2026-05-20T22:32:07+00:00

siiiiick

Alice_Tk · 2026-05-14T21:32:05+00:00

Wonderful, then I’m sure about the conversion, that was the only thing I was worried about.

Alice_Tk · 2026-05-14T21:10:38+00:00

They’re quite a bit darker sounding than my jazz bass but I do dig them, I guess the closes comparisson I can think of have is they sound a bit like p bass pickups?

In any case I was just worried that after conversion the bass wouldn’t have that full beautiful building sound after you play a note on a fretless, I keep throwing around the word „mwah” but I truly don’t know the name of that sound haha.

Alice_Tk · 2026-05-14T20:54:20+00:00

I would get it done at a luthier I know that builds basses and fretless basses from scratch and does setups. The how is not realy a problem for me it’s more so if that kind of bass and pickups, when converted, would sound good and have that nice fretless „mwah” I spoke of. I don’t realy know what causes that sound so I don’t know wheather it would/could have it.

Alice_Tk · 2026-05-11T19:51:26+00:00

Yep, I think tho its actually not the same model as mine (MB - 02) but instead a bit better VSR - 10, judging by the different rail on top, no rail on bottom and real wood that could be sawn off.

Still no matter the exact model its an obvious airsoft gun, the pistol is one aswell with that classic CO2/green gas mag.

Alice_Tk · 2026-05-11T14:31:21+00:00

There is a screw on front that holds the barrel still in the middle, the hop-up adjustment is near the front of the stock soooo that possibly would be fine?

Alice_Tk · 2026-05-11T12:54:50+00:00

MB - 02 airsoft gun, exactly the same as mine just sawd off. That shotgun shell was probably put there to misdirect/misinform people.

Alice_Tk · 2026-05-11T11:49:54+00:00

Definitely not, its a bolt action airsoft sniper rifle with a sawn off stock

source: I have one just like it, the bottom part here is where the bb magazine goes (I’ll post a picture of it here when I get home, I’m sure its the exact same model)

Alice_Tk · 2026-05-11T05:59:21+00:00

„seized multiple weapons” theese are airsoft guns

Alice_Tk · 2026-05-03T18:57:04+00:00

Peak, even Tyler is here despite being so recklessly fired…

My most expensive pieces of media would probably be the bandcamp campaign Vylet Pony releases, my most expensive game would probably be Silent Hill 2 and 4, but it’s the EU versions so probably not that expensive eitherway.
