Swans - My Father Will Guide Me Up A Rope To The Sky

I'm on the fence about whether this is a "true Swans" album or if Gira was using the Swans name to pimp his other stuff. Even if he was doing that, it's his prerogative and I don't really care. This is a great album and when I hear it I picture them playing it live, which I saw. Seeing them play this album live was an unforgettable experience. More memorable and probably more powerful than the album itself. No speakers or headphones can go loud enough to properly represent the band's actual intensity. Gira is a motherfucking monster.
