Bitter and sorrowful lyrics with ethereal and heavenly sounding music. This is why I love this band
FAV: Better Than You, Power And Sacrifice, Will We Survive, Love Will Save You, Song For The Sun, Miracle of Love, Blind
LEAST: Failure (I can never get into this song)
My not be perfect or most people's favorite, but I found it to still be an enjoyable, somber, gloomy, and dark experience on some points of the album, like "A Screw (Holy Money)" or "Coward".
May sound repetitive for most new listeners, but that's Swans for you
Fav: A Hanging, You Need Me, A Screw (Holy Money), Coward
Least: Another You
Still one of my favorite albums they released.
From the first track "Stay Here" to "Power For Power" I knew I was going to love this so much.
Everything is in your face, the guitars, the bass, the drums, and Michael Gira screaming at you for most of the album. The aggressiveness from all the members made this a jaw dropping experience for me. Cannot get enough of this album
Fav: EVERYTHING
