What's wrong with Swans selling merch
>>60459316
Actually amazed by how many retards post here.

Nothing, it's probably one of the few ways they can actually fund their next record.
Bands these days need to tour/sell merch/etc to make money
my skin constantly produces rupturing sores and oozing acne
the reality is that this is a perfect skin for swans merchandise

>tour/sell merch/etc
You could skip etc. Touring and selling merch is basically everything bands do these days.

Only if you're on a big label, where artists get close to null in album sales. Swans is independent, and I'm pretty sure To Be Kind sold enough for them to live comfortably/make a new record.

I said etc cause I know Swans release personalized records to raise money to record.

Theyre on an actual indie label in which swans is the only real cash cow they have besides maybe devendra. They have to produce recording, engineer, mix and master costs, legal costs, art and still want to live upper middle class caucasian lifestyles.

yeah. Do you think any old songs will make it on there? I know he said at the beginning of the reformation that they weren't going to play any old songs, but they did play Coward live a while back, so maybe

TBK sold 8,000 copies in the first week, and first week sales are always the highest by a long shot, so... yeah. not much.

>Gira: I do what I need to do to survive and make music. I actually started these Kickstarter type things around 2000 with Angels Of Light to fund recordings that were more expensive than our budget would allow from record sales. It’s been a way to involve people who truly care about the music and thank them and also have them involved in the production. To be honest, 15 years ago record sales were enough to support projects, particularly the range Swans has reached in terms of public awareness. I would prefer that, but this is how it is. It’s about ten times more work for about a tenth of the money.
