    Oh lord this is primal. It's why I've always loved Swans. It the very base of my person and send pulses of some mysterious force.

      @@nicknickson3650 Well yeah but what I mean is that both songs are connected, like at first I didn't see the similarities between Cloud of Unknowing and The Hanging Man, but after seeing them perform the latter on Sunday, I totally realized the connection between the two and how the Hanging Man most probably evolved from this live version of Cloud of Unknowing...

    Man, I just DO NOT GET the live version of Swans. On the albums, there's so much stuff going on that it's incredible, live however it's just them playing a single chord for a million times. That didnt matter in the 80s because the sound and rhythms were way more menacing, but now it's closer to normal rock music. What am I missing?

    • @mousiedung
      @mousiedung 8 років тому +1

      I think it's a "you have to be there" sort of thing because so far the live albums and videos are just them playing one or two chords in eights for 30 minutes or so...not my idea of "THE BEST THING EVER"

    • @Sighbot

      The chord usually gets build on top of slowly. So it’s kind of like watching a dam overflowing with a steady stream. It seems slow and steady but then build up tension and a flood of sound creates the climax. It varies from song to song though.
