Swans - Live at Primavera Sound, Barcelona, 02/06/2023 

Actually the recording is less louder than live! You can see the footage is shaking in the beginning haha, it was me shaking with the chair 😵‍💫

I'm glad I brought some earplugs, I never use them but here they actually made me hear more

I was at this set and within the first ten minutes I saw people sprinting for the exit covering their ears

I was there as well, it was the first time in my life when I felt really concerned that I'm gonna lose my hearing. But God, I loved it

I saw them during Glowing Man Tour. I remember seeing in comments to make sure to bring ear plugs. I tried not wearing them but I couldn’t last more than 20 seconds hahaha my body was vibrating the whole time

You need to keep this in a safe box wrapped in devotional robes . In years to come it will have the same value medieval monks attached to parts of the cross, or the bones of saints

Hope you enjoy the show!

”Turn this overhead light down, it’s so bright.”

swans keep their setlist consistent during their tours. sadly neither of those songs are in it. the setlist is pretty much exclusive to leaving meaning + the beggar

however, the songs tend to sound very different live in comparison to their album versions

They only play a short bit of Cloud Of Unknowing live on this tour. They play a bunch of songs from Leaving Meaning (Cathedrals Of Heaven and The Hanging Man) and the rest is only from the new album The Beggar. However, I saw them live in May and it was probably the best thing that I've experienced in my whole life. The volume and the intensity were unreal, the songs were louder, noisier and in my opinion way better than the studio versions. Please go to see them, trust me. You won't regret it later

@@lorenzo_paiano_ I agree, their glowing man tour was already jaw dropping but I like their newest direction even more. The live shows are vastly different from the latest album

I thought they skipped No More Of This

Either way they probably had to cut some stuff cause they’re at a festival here as opposed to one of their own venue sets

Are you new here?

@@wonderland2462 do you disagree?

I agree with you on some level. I love every second of this performance of that song, and maybe that makes me insane, but its length of repetitiveness holds me back from showing it to most people I know lmao.

It feels much better seeing it live vs the recording.

@@roustghoti why?

I mean Coldplay are a better band. Its just a fact of life.

Coldplay is pop trash, this is art

You can’t compare a mainstream band to an experimental art band
