Hymns wants a word. So do the last three


Fuck I should've had that in there. Put it down to human error.

Not like Godflesh who never put a foot wrong

They never topped Pure.
I'm going to go back to listen to the albums after Selfless, at the time I found their other releases good but a bit patchy.

Prob far from optimal live environment for Swans tbh. Only saw them once, not at a time I was a particular fan, but a really cool venue in Paris and it was quality, a real experience.

I thought the music sucked so I don't think the venue would make much difference.

Pure and Streetcleaner are the best for me but I love pretty much all of it. Some took more time than others to click, Us and Them especially, but I love that one too after some time.

us and them is the only album I don't like by them. I just can't get into it at all. I've tried and it just doesn't click. I love the new album, think it's great!

I love Hymns. A departure for sure, has cool riffs!

Heard a Godflesh song back in school, thought it was utter shit. Avoided them ever since.

You're missing out, there's a fair bit of variety in their monotony. There's no single tune that sums them up
