Swans - The Glowing Man
97

This album is a beautiful, otherworldly, and mystical experience; the very first two songs on the album are a reference to a Christian mystical tract from Medieval times called the Cloud of Unknowing, and the songs on this album, with their sound and occasional, esoteric lyrics appear to be dealing with mysticism.
The sound of this album feels like being ascended through space and time, it's otherworldly and one of a kind; an absolutely wonderful listen from start to finish. It feels like that ... read more

I love Kendrick Lamar but know next to nothing about this feud but holy crap this was deliciously brutal. He held NOTHING back, and the results are so unpleasant in a wonderful way. This was so precise and cold.

The Dead Flag Blues:
This song opens with an ominous drone along with an equally ominous narration from an unknown character who's expressing his lament at what the world has become; it stops awhile, and the song switches to this serenic, nostalgic, almost mellow theme consisting of gentle guitarwork and ... read more

Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Lift Yr. Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven!

This is the first album that I'd have reviewed since joining this site, I've been lurking here for a fair bit, and I thought I'd finally actually join instead of just observing far away from the shadows.
And I'm incredibly happy that this is the first album that I'd be reviewing, because this is a beautiful, beautiful piece of art and just one of those pieces which are truly perspective-shifting.

It's grand, it's magnificent, and it really does feel like it encompasses everything in its more ... read more
