Now that the dust has settled what does /mu/ think of this album
>>65690569
it's a combination of the Seer with To Be Kind, but lighter and not as interesting.
>>65690588
I disagree, to me it's a good conclusion to this version of swans. It me feel like dark souls 3 of swans
Not as good as the last two but there were few low points
>>65690569
Great conclusion, but not the best. The Glowing Man is definitely one of my favorite songs by them tho
>Now that the dust has settled
>not even released yet
>>65690748
That's what happens when leaky lark asks for some guy's ex's nudes.
much lighter compared to the first two in the trilogy but a fitting conclusion album the title track being the strongest track

>It me feel like dark souls 3 of swans
???
>>65691129
>What did he mean by this
Like dark souls 3 was the conclusion of dark souls, with heavy themes of ash after the flames, being past a point of hope, dread, etc
anyone get their pre-order yet? if so did you get a shipping notification. can't remember if I got one for To Be Kind.

too similar to the seer and to be kind in my opinion. so similar that it draws out and feels way too long.

I fell asleep listening to it

It sounds nothing like To Be Kind other than that part in the title track
Anybody have a download link? The archive is down
>>65691902
not that guy but you have to see how much of an overstatement you're making, right?
I mean, yes, To Be Kind was split into shorter songs, and there was much more emphasis on groove and even a bit more lightheartedness than on TGM. But overall, these 3 albums all share very similar instrumentation and production, as well as an overall sound. The difference is merely in the themes of the albums themselves, each directing this sound into different textural territories, allowing them to work well together AND stand up on their own as singular works.
And I mean, considering these albums literally evolved out of each other organically as they messed with the songs live over the last 4 years, it could all just be looked at as one giant 6 hour behemoth of an album. A 5-year ongoing work of art by these 6 dudes
The first two tracks are fantastic in their GY!BE-esque highs and lows - very moody - but "Frankie M" is easily the album's lowest moment
Had to go relisten to "Filth" to remind me what Gira sounded like in the beginning
>>65692022
Fair enough. The glowing man track is basically No words/no thoughts after 7 years of evolution. But that doesn't make the record any less interesting.

Got my vinyl on Saturday senpai.

I don't get the hate for that track. For me it's all around great, especially the first few minutes with those female vocals. It sounds so powerful and otherworldly
>>65691877
I haven't either, when did you preorder? I didn't until like the Tuesday of last week
>>65692160
I think it's just that by the time you get to that particular track when he does his Trademark chant at the end of the track I just sorta went "Oh god Gira give it up". Otherwise it's a good release. I even think it's better than To Be Kind
>>65692140
fat fuck

I knew that comment was going to come up eventually.
