Got the cd. WOW another 100 for swans. I know i know. This is the most engaging thematically. Its a whole new body of swans that we haven't heard in the studio. The music has just consumed michael and all the other musicians who gave this album 110% (proofs in the pudding) showing them at their highest consistency.
Nothing was really mind blowing like that last album. It was ok
Was expecting to not really like this as much but damn blackgaze aint no joke
I feel like if u were a child in the uk with a really bloke type dad u feel the most nostalgia listening to this. this is all i heard in the car for like 4 years
“Bodychoke” is an accurate representation of what this album offers. Its abrasive filled with gut wrenching vocals and dense instrumentals with good range of guitar techniques and great effect work
WOW 400th rating. i was trying to save it for the new swans live album but this is also a good choice
I dont know the context of this record but i sat through it on a car ride in the countryside and when “the inmost light itself” i felt petrified and felt a sacred nuance within the land i was in and a vision of it being burnt down
I think the craziest part about this is that quadeca did a song with THOR HARRIS. QUADECA AND SWANS ARE CONNECTED
