Alright, so...
The first six tracks are out in 320kbps. Check the archive if you want the MEGA link. Now we're on the hunt for the last two tracks: "The Glowing Man", and "Finally, Peace."
Since the last Swans thread is nearing the bump limit, I figure make a neater thread for the sake of compiling our reactions to the album so far should you be the kind of person willing to listen to an incomplete album, along with devoting our attention to finding the last two tracks.
Someone convince the guy on What.CD who has both tracks otherwise we won't have the full album until next week.
>>65519806
sure, just send me an e-vite, I'll convince him.
>>65519846
sent ;)

The Glowing Man played on BBC radio last month. It should be out there
>>65519880
That was just snippet. A longer snippet than the one on youtube but still a snippet.
>>65519880
the track has half an hour, BBC played like 4mins
>>65519880
That was an excerpt.
I straight up refuse to even discuss this album until I've listened to it first.
You won't find it until I'm done with their discography. I'm currently at Soundtracks for the Blind so it shouldn't take long.

>>65519905
>>65519911
Anyone have a link to that excerpt? It's different form the one posted on youtube
>>65519806
I'm gonna do the smart thing and openly assume that What.CD dude was lying about his possession of those files. If someone's gonna lord a leak over anyone's head, chances are they don't even have said leak. Such is the law of /mu/ and What.CD.
>>65519867
communism will win comrade corbyn
why dont u just wait for the album to come out for real
>>65519867
Im checking my e mail and it's not there. wtf! you lie!
>>65520002

>mfw it's their best album to date
>>65520002
Life's short my man
>>65520002
What's the point of waiting? Why test patience when you can just have what you want once it's started to surface? Life is short.
>>65520002
yeah dude, I mean, life is short why bother bro
>>65520053
>Sorry, this episode is not currently available on BBC iPlayer Radio
>>65520085
It got expired apparently. It was working a few days ago. You can still listen to a shorter version down below just scroll down a little.
>>65520110
A 30 second excerpt of a 4 minute excerpt. Meh
>>65519948
no its the guy who originally leaked the files
trust me he really has it, but only offers it to elite members
>>65520131
its on slsk tagged as radio edit, or you can click on that song in the description of the bbc programme and look in which other programmes it was played
Someone post the mega
I'm gonna go to sleep (eurofag). Whats the chance that amerifags leak it before I wake up?

Swans - The Glowing Man (6-track version)
>drone, noise rock, experimental
https://mega.nz/#F!9EozERYY!2ueobGEMS0qZNf59sZc0RA
>>65520416
It all depends upon the What.CD member withholding the tracks in wait for an elite member to talk to them. So it could literally be whenever.
>>65520450
>tfw elites are probably too patrician to care for Swans
>>65520427
stop calling rock music that doesn't have a clarified outline for the composition or play "experimental"
words and ideas have fucking definitions and im tired of you teenage pieces of shit clinging on to fashionable labels and aesthetics. what at all is experimental in the least about swans? the most you can argue is that it is avant-garde.

They're already shipping the cd/vinyl so it will very likely leak before the week is over.
>>65521117
Thank you very much my man
>>65520427
holy shit
Someone, somewhere has the entire album and they are being StinGY fuCKers
>>65520487
it's not avant-garde it's post-rock mixed with tribal ambient
>>65521117
This sounds so fucking good! THE FUUUUCK
>>65521117
Anyone notice this is different than the one they posted on youtube?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ka_hKb7dSiY
The vocals and everything come in way sooner, in fact Gira's vocals never come in on this youtube version, but they both seem to start at the same part when the beat drops. Is the youtube version actually edited, and not what's on the album? Or maybe the song calms down again after the youtube clip, and picks up again at the other clip?
Fuck all of you guys
>B-b-but I might buy the record later
No you won't. The band put a ton if work and their own money into making this art, and you couldn't care less. It's nothing more than another entitlement to you.
>>65522195
Except I fucking will? I've already bought signed copies of the last two swans records as well as two Angels of Light records. I'll definitely buy this one too, but I also want to listen to it as soon as possible, so fuck off.
>>65522195
>No you won't.
You don't fucking know me. I bought TBK.
>>65522195
I'll go see them on tour and pay triple what the record costs. Gira will be raping my wallet, do not fret anon
>>65522195
they lose ZERO money on me. i won't be able to buy music until i graduate. the alternative for me is to just listen to music on youtube. im from the middle east so what costs "a couple of bucks" for you is a good chunk from my shitty part time job that pays me in a weak ass currency.
also they make most of their money on shows/concerts/gigs/whatever-you-call-it.
>>65522195
fuck you I listened to the leak and I just bought it
>>65522363
>im from the middle east
seriously?? that's pretty wild that someone from there would be on 4chan.
>>65522530
not sure if sarcastic. come to /int/ we have middle east generals there all the time. turkey+israel alone have tons of 4chaners
>>65522195
I honestly DO, though. I've made a ritual of pirating the album, then going and seeing them live and buying it after and saying hello to Gira. I've done this 3 times now.
>>65522784
are you a poopy puffer?
>>65522195
I'm downloading illegally.I don't give a fuck.
Michael Gira should pay me for sitting there and listening to his 2-hour records. Ungrateful, senile old piece of shit.
>>65522195
Except I pre-ordered the day it was available, along with buying the Filth 3CD.
