Re: (TV) Who are the Swans ?



I used to see and photograph Swans a lot in their early days in NYC. The
music was brutal, loud, dark and disturbing. They were a very intense live
band. Here are some early Swans photos of mine on their website:

Most of the live Swans stuff is from bootlegs that they then released on
their own Young God label. "Public Castration Is a Good Idea" is probably
their best live album and captures them in the mid-80s.

Michael Gira is a very prolific and interesting artist. His solo
projects and his writings are worth checking out.
