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,

"I want Reddit gold"
I love how this album is as emotional as it is purely psychotic
listening to swans is like getting up too fast
DID YOU SERIOUSLY INTERRUPT MY SONG TO SHOW ME AN AD FOR MARIAH CAREY??????? THAT'S BLASPHEMY!
I find it interesting how you can still hear harmony within the chaos
If there's a song worth crying rivers to, here it is!
this shit makes me feel like i'm the child of a steppe nomad staring out at the starry sky in the night as everyone sleeps on a tent, fully unaware that tomorrow we're all going to be annihilated by nuclear hellfire we had no idea was coming
The songs on this album are considered by most to be "apocalyptic"- but I don't think they're quite that simple. Maybe I'm just drawing too much from the crying baby cover art, but I think instead of ushering in the end of man, they're welcoming man at his birth. They are foreshadowing the imminent terror he is about to endure and the beauty he will witness concurrently. They're not warnings but explanations delivered with pure sincerity. So they need to be a little unpleasant
Swans created some of the most insane\powerful pieces of music ever. My number 1 band for sure
I read recently that this track was written about Kirsten Dunst's character-Justine in the film (one of my favourites) Melancholia! Can anyone confirm? I'd like to believe it anyway, why not eh?!
"Hello, thank you for listening to our music. I hope it gives you some joy and pleasure..."
that little guitar lick that happens during the verses is so pleasant to hear
This is an alternative way of existing
i cried to this.
this song makes me feel like my heart is coming out of my mouth
This makes me want to cry or pull my hair out,or both.
The first half is quite tender and calm but a little unsettling with Gira's classic vocals but then the beat comes in half-way through and it slowly transitions into this terrifying, lumbering beast and the end of the world itself. I feel like too often the post-rock trilogy from Swans got labelled as "apocalyptic", but holy shit does this one deserve that label.
Only ever heard bits of this album here and there now and then so it's still quite new to me, but whilst I'm trying to listen and at the same time distracted doing housework, I feel like I'm just not able to take in and take on the enormity of whats presenting itself to my ears. The noise is there, in the room, but its tugging away demanding from me much much more than I can give right now. I'm a bit speechless.
The crescendo Is absolutely asphixiating
That advertisement is a gaddamned sin!!!
