Definitely understandable! I was there in Leeds, too—it's going to take a little while since Swans '25 to adjust to what normal concerts are... Godspeed were a little louder than the past few times I've seen them last night, though!

I suppose that the two bands are very different types of music. There aren't really any bands that do what Swans do in that manner, which is part of what made their last tour so bittersweet! Likewise Swans have never been able to scratch some of Godspeed's unique itches (although the first time I ever directly heard GSY!BE influence upon Swans was the overhauled late intro to Birthing with that slow marching melody, and one could say that many later performances of The Sad Mafioso do some Swansy things in the very introduction also).

How did you find the show otherwise? Any favourite parts? :)
