Swans "Soundtracks for the Blind" Full double album.
(genuine) Apologies: I can't imagine this is interest to many people. But I absolutely LOVED this album when it first came out.
Any Swans fans out there might be appreciative of the trip down memory lane. (Copper Disc is there as a full album too)

I'm off to see them in November, never really heard of them really.
So cliquey.

I've heard good things about Swans.
It's nice and droney isn't it? This is going on right now. Fuck you mainstream co-workers!

Haha- Two and a half hours of noise/drone?
Your co-workers will love you!
The album previous to "Soundtracks..." was chock-a-block full of 'proper' songs.... this song is especially lovely.

Ha ha yeah
one of them is suffering from a reading festival hangover so this is teaching him a valuable lesson.
I like it man. That 'blind' song's really nice. He sounds a bit like smog too.

I'd not noticed that...but I can totally hear the Smog thing.
There's a crossover of collaborators with Bill Callahan too.

Didn't know they'd made music after 1987 or 89ish.
Had some odd times listening to Virgin Prunes, Psychic TV and Swans.

Bloody brilliant album.
Spent much of the weekend heavily intoxicated. listening to Neurosis - might have to have a Michel Gira weekend this time.
