Thank you so much for posting! Jarboe is achingly talented - something that she has developed for decades along with friends, lovers, old enemies new fans - and given all I've learned about her over the years, she seems to have traveled enough path to last an average mortal several lifetimes. May she 'last' for many more...
ONE OF THE GREATEST RECORDINGS OF ALL TIME .........THIS SONG IS AUTHENTIC/BRILLIANT/CALM/INTENSE/AMAZING...SHE HAS THE VOICE OF AN ANGEL...ALWAYS.......I LOVE HER MUSIC/TALENT/SKILL/HER
Yeah, Jarboe was really perturbed, that Gira ended Swans. I remember her saying that she didn't even know that it was the Final Tour at first when they started it or words to that effect. I can't remember her exact quote.
I would really like to see Swans or Jarboe in concert someday. I would also like to have a Swans Symbols T-shirt, but it seems as though it's pretty difficult to find one anymore.
@Herbalaussie well, Gira, has another SWANS going now, with longtime member guitarist, Norman Westberg back in the fold. Have you heard about that? Check out the site on myspace.
@swans1997 Yes, I did! I was disappointed to discover that Jarboe won't be in the line-up this time, though. Her latest solo album, "Mahakali" was great, in my opinion.
Thank You for posting this. My ex-girlfriend snaked this record from me. My favorite album probably ever! I bought it for $7 in 1990. I hear it's worth a lot now. If I had it, I would never sell it.
@babypianocries When I saw her sing it live, Jarboe explained that they'd written this song for "interview with a vampire." So yeah, it's definitely about vampires!
There are no words to describe how happy I am right now - I'd always hoped this would turn up somewhere, this and the video for New Mind appearing on channel 4's The Tube totally changed my life

@copetill you can get it in the Children of God/World of Skin 2 CD set. I'm pretty sure Gira won't stop reissuing it.

I'll live forever.
I'll never be filled,
I'll never imagine I can change what I killed.
I destroy what I love,
I drain what is filled.
Sounds alot like vampirism
