Oh, and the heavy part of 'Her' made me jump in my seat. I'll definately have to check this band out.

Heh. Yeah, I love how that part just kind of jumps out like that.
Death in June are one of those bands I've always heard of but never actually listened to. Sounds like I should check them out.

I've been meaning to check out the Unsane album for a long time but I haven't heard the thing. your review is confirmation that I need to.
On the Swans album you wrote about: it's just fu@king uncanny because that is my favorite Swans album (that I know of: I don't have an encyclopedic knowledge of thier music) and I have been half-assed searching for a used copy of that CD for years. I know that it's something I need to have a physical copy of.

That's funny. Great minds, you know.
Not only is that Unsane album good but really all their stuff is worth checking out—their 90s output at least, I still haven't gotten around to giving either of their albums from the 00s a listen.
As far as
Love of Life goes, it's unfortunately really hard to track down because it's out of print. I had the cassette for years and years but was never able to track down the CD until an ex-girlfriend of mine somehow managed to find it for me for Christmas.

I love both of those albums.
White Light From the Mouth of Infinity and
Die Tur Ist Zu are amazing as well.
