Heh! Full disclosure - up to this album, that and the Blind Faith cover "Can't Find My Way Home" would have been the only two Swans tracks I could name off the top of my head.

it's funny, that's two more than I would have known, in college, a guy I knew played played it and I couldn't stand him so I couldn't stand the record.
I actually enjoyed the new CD!

About to get started here at Regency Ballroom, SF. HUGE crowd and electric mood. Really impressed at the turnout.

Vital, all-engrossing, and even intimidating. Few experiences are like this. At times, the swirl of sound comes close to inducing nausea and dizziness.
