Anybody here seen Swans live? They're coming here soon and I have heard they are quite an experience live - don't know if I would survive it!

I started with We Are Him and it blew my mind but How I Loved You is probably the best technically and mostly everyone's favourite.

I saw them on their My Father Will Guide Me Up a Rope to The Sky tour. Excellent show. You'll definitely survive but I suggest earplugs - extremely loud. Here's footage of the one I saw..

Personally I think "Everything is Good Here/Please Come Home" is their opus.....

I would love to make you sort of retrospective mix if you want.....I could have it in your pm by Thursday evening and I'll include album titles :)

James....I saw Swans on the same tour as Engine and my only regret is missing them on the Seer tour.....I highly suggest going

I've only heard one song Gira was ever associated with, that I liked:

Brings a sort of awkward contentment to my heart....
