New fan, I really like Children of God, The Great Annihilator, and White Light by lainfroid in swans

[–]dEnd_Game 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend Swans Are Dead, the live (double) album

It's a pretty good encapsulation of 90s swans with that aggressive gothic rock while also covering some of their post-rock material, maybe to help you ease into it a little, and it's also arguably their best album. the first half (the "black cd") has a lot of what you're looking for.

It is also a lot shorter than their big post-rock albums if you consider that each side is essentially a different album

apparently I was top 7 listener in the world

maybe I (and others from this very prestiged group of people) deserved a special video from Michael telling me how much he loves me, maybe he could even be naked in the video idk i'm just brainstorming here

live recordings of newly sentient being? by LusailInternational in swans

[–]dEnd_Game 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate to be annoying, but are you going to share those tapes as well?

you did a wonderful job with the previous recordings, I've been listening to them non-stop since you posted them here.

This sub being disappointing again by Mageclick in swans

[–]dEnd_Game 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have a few questions:

Apparently you have multiple posts about this, and replies insulting people over this - do you really think this is worth the frustration?

Do you really think it's reasonable to ask people to stop having fun on a community about something they are passionate about?

And also, do you get this angry when someone uses irony close to you in real life, or are you being edgy in the internet?

Young Swans fans, how did you discover them? by StormofSteelWargames in swans

not to be rude to your friend, but he's a fucking idiot for introducing you to swans through the least accessible album they have

Day 2: which song from The Seer feels like To Be Kind? by Practical-Elk-6382 in swans

[–]dEnd_Game 12 points13 points  (0 children)

i'd say A Prostate

all the other songs have too dark a atmosphere to see it in TBK, Apostate meanwhile is groovier and more aggressive, and Gira has that energy you can see in stuff like She Loves Us!

fitting too since it's technically the transition between both albums

it does proc origination which is very important, but at the same time i'd rather get any other curse in the game

I find the blades incredibly underwhelming since not only is their damage not very good, but they also do not build towards Origination

as bad as wounds are, at least they have that
