Did you discover them through /mu/?
Yeah, what of it?
Probably would've found them anyways from that trailer where they played Lunacy.

nah, I discovered them when I heard people at my college talking about swans reforming and me wondering what swans is.

No, I have a cousin, Jerry, who is old as fuck, though he looks 60 at most, it's kind of astounding.
Anyways, one day when I was a teenager, I was rifling through my basement and found a record of pic related. I dug out my moms old old record player, set it up with an old shitty reciever and speakers from the 80's and spun it, and immediately loved it.
One day during a family outing in Boston, I was talking to Jerry about music and told him about Babatunde Olatunji, and it bought him back to the late 60's when I guess Olatunji was really big, and he told me all sorts of stuff. Later he bought me to his place and showed me his big record collection, and we listened to Ummagumma, A Love Supreme, and Bitches Brew. The first time I'd heard any of them. Then he pulled out Filth and told me that this one was a lot more abrasive, and we listened to it.
That's pretty much how I got into music in general. Sorry for the blog post
"yes"

nah seriously though i found them through fantano

no you wouldn't have, because a) you don't even remember what the trailer was for (Macbeth) and b) you would have thought it was a "cool trailer with cool sounds."
/mu/ sucks most of the time, but I'll be the first to admit that I've gotten into a lot of music because of it.

We all did
No, I discovered them in 07 or something when I was a big Neurosis fan and someone recommended Swans to me because of it and I really liked what I heard. I was hyped as hell when I heard about them starting to play again but somehow I haven't really even listened to their new albums. It was really nice to finally see them live though.
Came to /mu/ because I'd heard a lot of the music I liked (including Swans) was discussed on here.
I learned of them on a what.cd post punk collage
I discovered them through the single on Kurt Cobain's favorite albums list. I never looked deep into them until /mu/ though.
no. rym. i was looking for music comparable to Nico's better albums and somebody recommended Children of God.
no i'm not a drone sheep with no taste of my own so i found them on the 1,147th google search result page for "good music".

Neurosis wikipedia page
anyone up that 320/flac glowing man from what yet?
Need a link the one in the archive is dead :(
Anyone who says yes should be banned and /mu/ would be a much better place.
Nah, I learned about them from Fandango. 4chan as well.
I first heard of them at the end of 2012 through Fantano. He put The Seer real high on his end of the year list, and it stood out to me for some reason, despite never even hearing about them, let alone their music. I think I thought they were "black metal", which back then meant I was thinking of punk. The cover reminded me of some Dio comp I'd seen on my brothers ipod years before. Three and a half years later, I've seen them live thrice and own most of their shit on vinle. Wacky ride, life
No...pretty much the opposite in fact.
No I heard about them on MySpace back in the 2000s as a teen.
