How do I into Swans? What album is most accessible?
>>64700475
Just don't. They are overrated.
>>64700475
If you have to ask, you won't get it. Swans isn't for anyone to just "pick up" and "get into".
>Swans
>Accessible
Pick 1
>>64700475
Ignore the haters, start with TBK, move backwards.

give me all yr shekels now

listen to their first ep senpai then stop there the rest is useless
The Seer is actually fairly accessible, that's how I got into them
The Seer is accessible but its also not really that similar to other Swans albums so...
don't bother they're boring as fuck
there's better bands in any genre that they've tried to play
Start with Filth and move forwards, do NOT start with Soundtracks for the Blind

>>64700613
don't listen to these people
You start with the Great Annihilator.
Once you're done listening to everything else, you return to the Great Annihilator.

i started with stftb and it turned out just fine, don't know why this meme is perpetuated on here
also, how come no one ever mentions their s/t? it's pretty great no wave, like a juiced up version of filth
Read the fucking sticky
start with soundtracks for the blind, listen to it a shit load, then listen to everything else from the 90's (WLFRMOI, the great annihilator etc.) then just go wherever you want from there

>Start with Filth
They said they wanted something accessible
>>64700561 seems like the right idea if we want accessibility. But starting with Filth would be better if one wants to just jump right into what they're really about
.
>>64700475
It really depends on what era you want to listen to, really. They've explored about five different types of music and they have plenty of music that would be unrecognizable as being the same band if it were not for Michael Gira.
>>64700475
I feel like the seer is probably the most accessible you're really going to get for swans.
