    My God… so many memories. I remember discovering this song shortly after arriving to Barcelona, where I live now, twelve years ago. Memories of lonely days, sleepless nights walking through the city, watching the city lights at the distance Bittersweet memories, lots of bittersweet memories brought back by this song.

    This is one of the best songs, musically speaking, that Gira ever wrote... I could keep listening to this in my unkempt room, in my unwashed, sweat soaked body lying naked and weeping and laughing and starve for days...

      That's what happened to me after I accidentally watched a video here on you tube of a baby monkey tortured to death. But no laughing. Just rage and lots of crying. I couldn't eat or sleep for 2 days, it was that disturbing. And it's right here on you tube, profiting off of animal abuse/ad revenue, here for children and anyone to view. Shame on You Tube

    I love Swans, but I also love how much gentler Gira's solo work is than that. I dunno, it's really nice.

      @@stirhaven1981 been a really long time since I was in that head space. I liked the shades of light the popped up in their early 90s stuff. Love will save you is a great song. As far as the new stuff I've heard a little and its the pounding ostinato I expected but that didn't grab me. Thats ok, im happy people are enjoying it. Take care dude.

      It looks like it was only on the 7" of 'Praise your name', which I never knew existed. It sounds familiar, maybe just cos it's Angels, but such a good one this is driving me a bit mad. It's on his 1st solo homemade CD and I'll check manana if it really is just solo. If so, this LP is the only place it seems to get it, unless you pay the creep at discogs £70 for the 45........hate when this shit happens.....

    • @clangersspace2679
      @clangersspace2679 5 років тому

      Yeah it seems to be the same version on Solo Home Recordings, but that doesn't go cheap so this Dog LP so far would be the best bet if transistor quality does not suffice. Phew, this Swans oral history book is amazin huh?

      Now im a servent of god lay wasted on grease and meadow
      The blue skies rain of chlorine and amonia poured into my eyes with the sun
      And i travel through space without fear
      In a body thats now disappearing
      In (?) in early filthy sphere made by gasoline and rising through the sky
      See self hatered is a beautiful cancer
      And i encourage you to feed it
      And i like to watch you just suffer
      The love and punishments of god
      And i travel theough space without a sound
      My body is an infinite number
      Dissected by perceptions which are encrouching like oceans infecting under the system, the world
      123 123
      And our love is a thick red ocean
      Swollen w lust and fatigue
      And i encourage you to drink it like i encourage myself to breathe
      And i travel through space unconcious protected inside your mouth
      Like an acid vapor suspended above the dry mouth
      Dissolving like an injection
      Spilling through the crystal rivers of your veins
