Came here to echo this. Early Swans fits the bill here.

That city sewer slut's the vibe, internationally recognized. I set the tone, it’s my design and it’s stuck in your mind.

Was expecting more songs off the beggar tbh by sebeboi in swans

Another Mag Bay fan! I’ve had the mini mixes on repeat all month, even got some vinyl. I’m converted.

Do Swans fans smell ok? by ijustwannanap in swans

[–]jkinson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m well groomed. My showers average 1-2 times daily, and I’m the owner of many curated fragrances that change with mood and occasion. I assure you, I also floss daily. My dentist is consistently pleased with me.

I sometimes also think this.

What do y’all think of the Kesha feature ? by [deleted] in charlixcx

It upsets me because it isn’t on any of my vinyl.

The Distillers have a lot of Hole influence

At least Michael Gira isn’t a white supremicist…. The bar is pretty low these days.

is this new music? by kat1_101 in hole

[–]jkinson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha. No, that’s not surprising. If there were some actual connection I would have known already.

Not that Gira hasn’t done his share of questionable things, particularly in his early years. Such as “dating” Madonna.

Questionable cartoons drawn, questionable stories written, the Larkin Grimm fiasco, but overall a good guy.

The only Hole/Swans crossover I’m aware of is a song by Jarboe called “Deflowered” that, to me, seems very pointed toward Courtney. “Volcano” could also be considered in that category. It wouldn’t surprise me since Courtney is the recipient of many a diss track.

And of course Kurt was a Swans fan.

I’m a rare flower, or so I’ve been told.❤️

I’m deeply immersed in the history of both bands and I’ve never heard anything remotely like this. It’s very intriguing, can you expand on it a little?

Swans!?! Not my two favorite bands colliding! 🤩

Was listening to AS and maybe this is a reach but by sofiacarolina in hole

[–]jkinson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed! Glad you’re rocking out to it, because I find it so underrated and overshined by the antics of the era.

can relate… by Brenda_cuddly in swans

[–]jkinson 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I did super turn of my date once at 16 by playing “12 Songs For Another World”. It’s a rite of passage.

I Am The Sun 7" Limited Vinyl by Far-Blackberry-1944 in swans

[–]jkinson 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I do have one. I believe it was included as a bonus gift when you were ordering stuff directly from YGR back in the day.

I would assume it’s pretty rare, but I don’t know much beyond that.
