    So, today I finally decided to get into Swans. I decided to go with Children of God as my introduction.

    "The sex in your soul will damn you to hell." - Dark. I like it!

    So, yeah where do you guys recommend I go from here?

    Ughhhhh...

    Sean Nelson from Harvey Danger.
    This album came out last year, I think it deserved more attention.
    It's pretty damn awesome.

    Well, I've been working non-stop.
    Got college application essays, school essays and lab reports to write as well as tests to study for.

    So...How 'bout this blog thing

    Soo... I've decided to give the whole blog thing a try.
    Let's see...

    Unrelated song, Check
    Really like this song, it's an unreleased song off of Weezer's first demo, sounds like Pixies a bit.
    So anyway, I ended up watching Rainbow Rocks with my 10 year old little sister.

    We didn't like it.
    We thought it sucked.

2569981 I'll check em out.

2570066 Hmm, I'll keep that in mind. Plus there are half hour songs on those things from what I've seen. My attention span isn't that long. The longest track (that wasn't classical music, which usually puts me right to sleep or I use as background music) I've ever listened to is Echoes by Pink Floyd and even then I was doing something else while listening to it.

All of their stuff is good except for The Burning World and Love Of Life.

At least, I think so anyway.

2570240 I'll keep that in mind. I finished listening to the album. Blackmail is kinda pretty imo.

welcum to the wurld of teh Swans

i'll be ur guide

On a more serious note: Mr. Gira himself once recommended (pre-breakup) that you start with the last album, then work your way back from there (i.e start with "Soundtracks For The Blind")

2668691 I'll keep that in mind. I have listened to Children of God and half of Soundtracks for The Blind, I had to stop halfway because I was interrupted.

2668708

I had to stop halfway because I was interrupted.

>interrupted

It better have been a meteor strike or something... :twilightangry2:

2668719 More like mother unable to understand that I can concentrate with music even if she can't.
