------------- Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I have observed before. It can be much like that with music for me. |

I thought this might be an amusing way to start a topic (those two have become a meme above), and I adore that part of Helpless Child, so epic, but I was planning to set this up as a placeholder for more news of the 2025 Swans album The Birthing which has already been mixed. Gira has said that he was hoping for a release date quite early in 2025. It is supposed to be Swans last "big-sound" album. So I think it will go more in an Angels of Light, folk, stripped back kind of direction, which goes back to much earlier Swans (early 90s for instance) -- Gira went back to doing Swans in large part because Angels of Light does not get the same recognition. I like big epic Gira and the lighter stuff both in Swans and Angels of Light. Swans latest release, by the way, is Live Rope, alive album released last month (November). I have yet to hear it. ------------- Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I have observed before.
