Ništa recenzije, ništa semplovi, samo dva diska od početka do kraja, iz cuga.

Izgleda da je curnulo nesto

8 pesama, super zvuce prve dve, utonite

Joj brate

Da svedemo stvari pošteno, ovo bi bio album godine.

Bar dok ne procuri Kayo Dot. Nije me oborio sa nogu moram da priznam..

Čega tu sve nema već na prvo slušanje, daj mu šansu junačku. Dugo mi se nije desilo ovakvo premijerno preslušavanje nečega.

Naravno, vrtece se celog leta sigurno..

Al brate ima stvarno napornih delova i starih fazona, ali i prejakih momenata naravno..

Mora da bude starih fazona. Slušamo muziku prađedova koji nekako nikako da umru. To bi bila naša sreća. Sve im je za oprostiti.

Da ali vise sam mislio recimo na The Glowing Man koja preterano podseca na Bring me the sun i tako..

 

Alal im vera u svakom slucaju, Gira bog..

To stoji.

^ istina, dosta podseca sa onim nabadanjima, i dosta se neke teksture poklapaju, samo je malo brze na glowing man-u

 

album u skladu sa njihovim godinama, vise ambijentala, manje nasilje, meni je dobar trip

Volim ja njih <3

Gira was kind enough to take time to chat with Dangerous Minds about the new album.

Dangerous Minds: I understand this is the last album from Swans as the band is currently constituted?

Michael Gira: Yes sir.

DM: What needs to change? Personnel, direction? Everything?

MG: All of it. We’ve been in this configuration for seven years, and I think it’s the most fruitful musical period of my life, it’s been wonderful. I can just see that if it were to continue, the satyr would begin eating its own corpse. So I think it’s time to change things up. I’m going to continue Swans, just not as a permanent band. I’m more inclined to have a rotating cast of members. It was like that for a long period during the ‘80s and ‘90s so I’m just going back to that mode. It’s kind of more responsibility than I’m able to deal with anymore to have a permanent band, and the band members have things they want to do in their lives as well—it’s well over 200 days a year that we’re together, and it’s a huge commitment. We just want to fly free like little birds.

DM: The Glowing Man is your third consecutive 3XLP. That’s surely unprecedented, right?

MG: I have no idea. It’s a double CD, triple album. It’s the format that works for the music. At a certain point I decided I didn’t care about figuring out a way to fit it on to a certain format—just let the music follow its path, and then figure out how to release it, and whatever that was would be how it is.

DM: The composition strategy on To Be Kind came largely from developing songs from improvisations that happened in concert. Is that the case again here?

MG: That’s one facet of how the record was made, yes. Another facet was that I’d have songs that I’d bring in to the studio on acoustic guitar, and those songs would be developed and orchestrated in the studio with the band. The songs on the record that came out of live performance were “The Cloud of Forgetting,” “The Cloud of Unknowing,” “Frankie M” and “The Glowing Man.” The rest were developed as I described.

 

 

DM: I’m curious about the connection between The Glowing Man’s “The World Looks Red/The World Looks Black” and the old Sonic Youth song “The World Looks Red,” for which you wrote the lyrics about 35 years ago. Why revisit those lyrics again after all this time?

MG: Because they were there? They were there in my head—I was playing what I thought was a pretty compelling little guitar figure, and I was utterly bereft of words for it—as I’m sometimes wont to be these days, I had no words whatsoever. I just started singing those words as place-fillers, and I though why don’t I just fucking use them? I’d recently reconnected with Thurston, so maybe he was on my mind and that’s why I thought of that song, but it felt like closing the circle.

DM: Maybe it’s because the lyrics made me mindful of Sonic Youth, but the guitar figure you’re talking about reminded me of their song “Shadow of a Doubt.” I’d wondered if there was a tribute or homage thing going on.

MG: Not at all, I just had this thing I was playing and the words came to mind. I don’t actually remember how that song goes.

DM: Who is Frankie M?

MG: He’s my banker. [laughs] No, he’s someone I know, a very troubled soul. Preternaturally intelligent, but also spectacularly fucked up. And it was a tribute to him.

DM: Is “The Glowing Man” anyone in particular?

MG: It’s an allusion to a state of mind, I suppose. That moment when your mind incinerates, which I find myself experiencing quite often during live performances, and I’m hoping the audience is experiencing something similar. I don’t mean to be grandiose but when it works it’s really transcendent. I wouldn’t even take credit for it, it’s like a benevolent angel from the underworld was released to take over the sound, and we follow it.

DM: Will there be a final tour?

MG: Absolutely, we’re preparing for it now. We’ll be rehearsing for three weeks and we tour for 18 months. We’ll be doing some songs from the album which we’re going to hack away at, and find new forms for them. And I’m working on some new songs now, which I want to work up with the band, and we’ll see where it goes. I want it to be constantly changing throughout the tour, I don’t want to just do some kind of set that replicates the album.

The Glowing Man will be released on June 17th. One version of the release will be a deluxe CD box that includes a 28-minute DVD of live footage from 2015. It is Dangerous Minds’ extreme privilege to debut that video in its entirety here today.

Nisam još poslušao album. Tj. pokušao sam prvo onaj vbr, ali čeka se prava stvar. Mislim da će mi odgovarati više za jesen ako je bude. Ne ide nikako uz ove vrućine.
