Hello, thank you for listening to our music. I hope it gives you some joy and pleasure.
I am pleased that you have discovered our music through this medium. I view this experience as the equivalent of previewing a record in a record store in days of old. However, if you wish to experience the music in its' fullest form, I would strongly encourage you to acquire it in a physical format you can bring into your home. Not only will you then be able to experience the richest version of the music sonically, but you will also be afforded the opportunity to enjoy the tangible artwork, which was conceived in tandem with the music, and serves as a further portal to experiencing the total conceptual and spiritual and emotional content of the work we have labored, lovingly, to bring to you.
I love you,

One of the greatest songs ever made in my opinion
Right after the greatest song ever made
I now consider The Glowing Man to be the crowning achievement of post-reunion Swans and their trilogy of albums. If The Seer is slugging through hell, and To Be Kind is contending with the chaos of life in the human realm, with the beauty and chaos that comes with humanity, The Glowing Man is the slingshot into the heavens, not peaceful but forceful. The title track may be one of their greatest musical achievements, a colossal track, technically perfect, and such relentless sublime brutality is followed by this piece - Finally, Peace. A fitting end to it all.
Very well put.
Nailed it!
My cousin: Mr Gira would be proud of this comment. I think the same, but wouldn't be able to articulate such an explanation. The album ending like this left me speechless back in the day it was released. I adore this piece.
This. 🙌
Goddamn that was so well written
This song feels like dying, but in a good, cathartic way. It's the stillness and calm after a long period of turmoil.
WHY ARE YOU EVERYWHERE FROM DEATH GRIPS TO SWANS REALLY?
To me it sounds like ascending to heaven, and feeling very happy because you're leaving a life full of terror behind.
This sounds super pretentious, but that's how I interpret it.
on the vinyl version it ends really abruptly~ it feels like the song is cheerily galloping towards its death :(
I cant be the only that leaves this album on a higher plane of existence
it's like Gira saw a bit of God/heaven and then he's been pissed ever since that he's still alive with momentary glimpses of heaven coming from his music.
The trylogy of albums starts with ''Lunacy'' a track about the formation of the first developemental afterbirth thoughts, and their chaotic nature, like being born into a world of chaos. This track is the last living moments of the same character that through a life of struggles finds peace at the end, like finally breaking free of the chaos.
The end result is not the objective--but the process as a whole
Seer: Hell
TBK: Purgatory
TGM: Heaven
i wouldn't say that. i actually believe that each one of these albums is a very individual one. for example, my favourite swans album whatsoever: The Seer
it, in my point of view, tells a story. i won't write the story down here, because it's my own intepretation and very probably wasn't the intention of Gira, nonetheless, you can hear it there if you pay attention. the album's sound is extremely primal - all the bagpipes and dulcimers, a distinct, unifying sound.
I had a similar thought, specifically comparing each sequential album to the sections of the Divine Comedy. Though I think a more accurate description would be that each album contains elements of both heaven and hell.
TheCandyHole Soundtracks for the Blind: The End
Hřebík Do Rakve
YES MAN!!
I’ve mapped out a whole movie plot line and scenes around the Seer and same with TBK.
They do conjure up completely different images though.
The Seer brings to mind a fantasy mid evil setting focusing on a conflict of a kingdom and the wolf seen on the cover.
TBK is a completely different story though. I think of a kind of “future warfare” setting between the theocracies of“the sun” and “nightfall”
Gira also plays a role in the conflict, acting as a Demigod that keeps the world in a constant state of chaos and war.
I feel like a madman describing this and if you want me to elaborate do tell.
In some ways, I actually found the Seer to be more uplifting than To Be Kind.
You could surrender to death with this song
The Glowing Man is definitly my favorite album of all time
This song is on my personal funeral musick list.
Whenever it will happen.

LOL!
To die to this song...
This might be my favorite song to exist. Absolute transcendence in music form.
same!
This is what a masterpiece sounds like
After hearing this, you just can't listen to anything else that insults a listeners intelligence. This is art.
When I first heard the song it just floored me
Everything they have done throughout the years continues to take my breath away great annihilator to my grave but still
This sounds the end credits to a really good series set during a time of monarchy and religious ruling
the first two songs of this album are based on a guide to Christian mysticism. "Cloud of Unknowing" by anonymous 14th century
Swans - Finally, Peace Lyrics:
[Verse]
With glittering hands on collapsible land
We're praising the sun for the damage he's done
A ruinous eyesore, oh what is a mind for?
Just a knife in a lake, just an arrow in space
All creation is hollow, and a picture's a shadow
Just a symptom of love, with a lack of a cause
Now the city's dissolving, and heaven's inhaling
While the ocean is thinking of a surface reflecting:
[Outro]
Your glorious mind, your glorious mind
Your glorious mind, your glorious mind
Your glorious mind, your glorious mind
Your glorious mind, your glorious mind
Your glorious mind (Your glory is mine)
Your glorious mind (Your glory is mine)
Your glorious mind (Your glory is mine)
Your glorious mind (Your glory is mine)
Your glorious mind (Your glory is mine)
Your glorious mind (Your glory is mine)
Your glorious mind (Your glory is mine)
Your glorious mind (Your glory is mine)
Your glorious mind (Your glory is mine)
Your glorious mind (Your glory is mine)
Your glorious mind (Your glory is mine)
Your glorious mind (Your glory is mine)
Your glorious mind (Your glory is mine)
Your glorious mind (Your glory is mine)
Your glorious mind (Your glory is mine)
Your glorious mind (Your glory is mine)
Mine, mine
Mine, mine
Mine, mine
Mine, mine
Mine, mine
Gracias
Очень всё не просто у этого коллектива. Но в этом и весь КАЙФ! Я их открыл для себя пару лет назад. До сих пор тащюсь. Думал всё знаю о рокен-ролле, хрен там!!!
Simply mesmerizing.
YOUR GLORY IS MIND
idk you
your glorious mind.
AFTER ALL THE SHIT AND SUFFERING, SWANS MADE IT. RESPECT.
I haven't listened to this album for about a year - this song in particular never really stood out to me and I never thought much of it - but when it started playing thanks to UA-cam's algorithm, it struck some nerves in me I cannot explain. Like a transcendental nostalgia I have never experienced. I can't explain it very well but it's clear to me the magical sorcery that is Swans and Michael Gira's music.
Finally Peace is like the dreamy feeling of discovery that you were not hurt after a great fall. Or something. 😜
What is a mind for? Where does a body end?
This was meant sound like 70s rock. I forgot how great and diverse swans are. Genius musicians.
Which bands and musicans of the 70s?
Not really sure to be honest but it does have that 70s feel to it
I know what you mean. This reminds me of Jefferson airplane somehow
@@HerrTelef The Doors, likely, which is maybe the biggest influence on Gira. But also This Heat, if we're including late 70's, not much on this particular song, though.
amazing.
We love you Michael Gira. I just cried.
Great ending for a great ending for the third time in this amazing trilogy
HEAVEN
So beautiful.
magnificent
I love you too!
Woah
Applausi!
Zero dislikes, as it is supposed to be!So beautiful...give me chills!
💗
These lyrics got me shook......
This low key sounds like a xmas song
easily the best soundtrack in how to train your dragons
With glittering hands
On collapsible land
We're praising the sun
For the damage he's done
A ruinous eyesore
Oh what is a mind for?
Just a knife in a lake
Just an arrow in space
All creation is hollow
And a picture's a shadow
Just a symptom of love
With a lack of a cause
Now the city's dissolving
(dissolving)
And heaven's inhaling
(dissolving)
While the ocean is thinking of a surface reflecting:
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine
The glory is mine...
Thanks, Michael Gira.
Anyone know who the woman singer in this is?
MassimoVTV _ Gira's wife, I think
I know it was her on When Will I Return? but I don't know if it's her again or Jarboe?
It is indeed Jennifer Gira again, I got the liner notes right in front of me
What are we?
Nature
we are devo
All creation is hollow
Gold
The mind
Read the title like im maxmoefoe
reminds me of the end of evangelion
Dark Souls reference? 😲
Jan the Jan man
Lmao
Funny that this song sounds like le late Der Bluthartsch, post Philosopher Stone...
This honestly sounds like it’d be perfect for a DOOM Eternal ending cutscene.
Goodbye zhasonlol Hdn the Juan msn
Zachary 88 I mean you.
