I listen to the Swans when I want to understand, physically, emotionally, and spiritually, that I am alone.

Thanks for the great video.

Such a great band, remember them very well.

Had the (unique) chance to see them back in

'97 in Paradiso, Amsterdam....one word: INCREDIBLE.

Got my Jim Morisson shirt signed by the Master with the words:

"I am Morisson. M. Gira"

@woco1976 that's so gira it's almost funny. brilliant

note that he states as morisson as a constant influence and his reason for starting out playing music

[TheseDyingEyes]

Every other band that pretends to 'heaviness' is nothing compared to this. Never in the history of music did so few chords sound so all-encompassing.

" i have seen telecaster models that had f holes and were made of some kind of metal rather than wood. this model he is playing is close to what i have seen before."

The children were suffocating, Down in your damp cave, And you were the mother, And I was the sleeping slave. Protect me from violence, Hold me in your cool lips, You drug me with kindness, So I can pretend I exist. Now you be the only child, I'll suck on your breast, You'll feed me with gasoline, I'll burn my name in your head.

[naffanyaaa]

Now you be the mother, And I'll be your fool, I'll hide myself deep inside, Your crimson pool. The muddy water runs, Beneath your folds, You won't let me breathe, You won't let me go. Now you be the stranger, And I'll be the white-skinned son, You'll blacken my innocence, With sugar and opium...

What kind of Tele is Michael Gira playing here?
