    Hello, thank you for listening to our music. I hope it gives you some joy and pleasure.
    I am pleased that you have discovered our music through this medium. I view this experience as the equivalent of previewing a record in a record store in days of old. However, if you wish to experience the music in its' fullest form, I would strongly encourage you to acquire it in a physical format you can bring into your home. Not only will you then be able to experience the richest version of the music sonically, but you will also be afforded the opportunity to enjoy the tangible artwork, which was conceived in tandem with the music, and serves as a further portal to experiencing the total conceptual and spiritual and emotional content of the work we have labored, lovingly, to bring to you.
    I love you,
    Michael Gira / Swans / Young God Records

      It may be the closest to where Michael Gira was really trying to take this revived project all along.
      I don't know but I think of how he hated how the early band was typecast as heavy and loud. He was always as interested in being light as he was in being heavy or dark. And the silences were always as important as the loudness. So, perhaps the perfect Swans music should be something more of a blend - where the Seer and To Be Kind seemed to rely more on the characteristic heaviness than this.

      As mentioned, it's almost a moot point comparing what is essentially a triptych, a work of art in three parts. You could say any album is your favourite and I wouldn't argue with you. But I agree with you, The Glowing Man is my favorite of them all. The highest highs juxtaposed amongst stillness and calm. Took years of listening for it to grow on me, To Be Kind is way more in-your-face and grabs you immediately, whereas this is a slow burner.

    Swans - The World Looks Red / The World Looks Black Lyrics:
    [Verse 1: The World Looks Red]
    Push it away
    The world looks red
    People with fish eyes
    The ground sucks
    Walk on my fingertips
    Displacing the fog (Silver, na na, silver)
    The weight of my body (Silver, na na, silver)
    Is too much to bear (Silver, na na, silver)
    The memory drains (Silver, na na, silver)
    The life from a dog (Silver, na na, silver, silver, silver)
    An ocean of insects (Silver, na na, silver)
    Works like a sheet (Silver, na na, silver, silver, na na)
    The immoveable fact (Silver, na na, silver, silver)
    Buries my mind (Silver, na na, silver, silver, na na)
    Bury my mind (Silver, na na, silver)
    Bury my mind (Silver, na na)
    Bury my mind (Silver, na na)
    Bury my mind (Silver, na na, silver)
    In a horse-hair coat (Silver, na na, silver, silver)
    In a pile (Silver, na na, silver)
    On the floor (Silver, na na)
    On the floor (Silver, na na)
    On the floor (Silver, silver, na na, silver)
    Bury my mind
    Bury my mind (Silver, na na, silver)
    Mother, bury my mind, mother, bury my mind
    Mother, bury my mind, mother, bury my mind
    Mother, bury my mind, mother, bury my mind

    2017: good song
    2023: GARDEN OF FORKING PATHS is the first of the four missions of the VIOLENCE layer, and the first level of ACT III. It takes place in a giant marble labyrinth fencing the inner circles of the Violence layer.
    Major Areas
    Blanche Cemetery
    A cemetery, covered in a layer of either ash or snow. Many cross-shaped tombstones and four white trees stand next to the white path placed directly in front of the elevator, it leads straight to the Labyrinth.
    Labyrinth
    A big white building, with the entrance having a cross of Christ next to it on both sides. The interior is very reminiscent of the Developer Museum, using some of the same textures.
    When approaching the left door in the first hall, it shuts itself before you can enter, forcing the player to move on to the next room where several Mannequins stand seemingly motionless inside. That is, until you make the wrong move.
    In front of a closed door, an empty red skull pedestal is hidden under the floor, it rises up when approached. Once returned to the hall from which the player came from, the door leading to the cemetery will be shut as well, leaving the door which grants access to a book and button open. Pressing the button allows the player to enter the previously blocked off room, where a checkpoint can be activated. The interior is filled with many Mannequins in various poses and a Red Skull replacing the head of a praying Mannequin behind bars. After taking the skull and turning around, the player will be met with every Mannequin facing their way.
    These Mannequins do not attack, and allow the player to proceed through the level further.
    Final Page
    MOST TEXT: INCOMPREHENSIBLE. DISPLAYING FINAL PAGE:
    The unending halls of the Garden! Ah, so dutifully decorated by the cross, the symbol that angels use for the Tree of Life. They praise their beloved Father who had planted it and filled us with the dew of its leaves and the nectar of its fruit, that which gives us life, courses through our veins...
    For you however, our truth: Our bodies are not a vessel for the blood of the fruit, but its prison. The beautiful guts and gorgeous bone YEARN to be shown and seen! SPLAYED! Under the divine cross of the Tree of Life, we pay it tribute through the art of violence.
