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

You're right. Something about this record feels timeless to me, more so than pretty much any other Swans album. Something about the music is just so universally profound that I think no matter what the current trends are musically, this will always exist to utterly baffle you. Pretty much perfect record besides a couple of small moments for me with multiple genuinely perfect (or the closest to that it you can get) tracks if you ask me.

"To Be Kind" is very in your face about its tone and attitude, and you either love it or hate it but you know very quickly which one it is. "The Glowing Man" as an album is a stranger thing, much more introspective at the lowest points and yet managing to expand endlessly at the highest points. Some of the most brutal passages of Swans' entire 30+ year run distilled. Just this track alone is completely life-affirming, reality-shaking, mind-bending totally.

Swans + big-boy acid doses is a match made in heaven/hell. I almost always trip with 400ug and Swans is always there with me in one way or another. Listening to their discography on acid is why TGM is my personal favourite of all their releases - it becomes a portal to a different reality.

This song is in the same key as "Bring The Sun/Toussaint L'Ouverture". If you want to experience this track differently, I can recommend playing the 1st part of "Bring The Sun" (without Toussaint L'Ouverture) before the 2nd part of this track, starting at 15:00 minutes. The transition is nearly smooth and it energizes an already energetic tune further.

Because this latest incarnation of Swans is less about the logic and reason behind music, and more about the sheer feeling of it. The physicality of it. It's not about 'getting' the band, you can't 'get' Swans, just experience it. Swans live (saw them during the Deliquescence release period, after The Glowing Man) is an otherworldly experience, 3 hours of volume and power hitting you constantly, exhausted from standing, nearly hallucinating from the sensory overload. Yes, god damn yes, this goes beyond music. This is a portal to your inner self. Ecstasy!

the live shows are pretty crazy but actually shut up about this. this is real music, it does not "transcend" and you don't need to be a genius to like it. it's just a good instrumental and good singing, like every other song

I started my Swans journey with this song after failing to get into the discography 9 months earlier. Even though every album I've listened to is beautiful in their own way, The Glowing Man (the album and the song) is still my absolute favorite. Every time I hear that intro, I'm being brought back to when I first listened to this before school. I remember when I finished it, I immediately rewound it and listened again. After the second listen, I went to bandcamp and played the whole album 2 times in a row. This album was like an actual drug. I couldn't focus in school, and this music was the only thing I would talk about all week (my friends probably got really tired of me, ngl). After all of this, I did tons of research into the band, made a mental list of every album I wanted to listen to, and then jumped straight into the Swans rabbit hole. Anyways, I would say the song is pretty decent lmao.

Damn I discovered Swans a few MONTHS ago and it's easily in my top 5 bands now. I really hate the fact that amazing music like this doesn't get very popular just because it's different and unique. I recommend this stuff to people and they don't like it cause it's too "weird". I recently became a mild insomniac and this band really helps me out with anxiety and helps me fall asleep. I hope these guys get recognized and appreciated more, cause they certainly deserve it.

if swans were mainstream it'd lose its appeal also it not being mainstream doesn't make it unpopular. swans is a household name in the music community.

Listening to this is the equivalent of going to church, loving thy neighbor and understanding the truth of the universe all in one. Swans will always resonate to my soul and make me feel whole. It is the most healing and cathartic music to listen to. Easily the top ten tops of music to listen to feel whole and healed.

Amazing! I remember coming to the last ever London Swans (Are Dead tour) gig at the Astoria 2 in London 1997, Michael. I hung out with Micheal Hutchence who was gone soon after. You came out naked, arms outstretched as an "This is everything I am, I have nothing else to give you!, encore, and I thought that was it for Swans. Then at the Camden Palace(or whatever it was then) 10 years ago the most incredible gig where I had to leave after 3 hours as my arm swelled up and I thought i was about to croak. I had a quadruple bypass the next dayl. 🤥 Then Brighton where everyone except me had earplugs and I thought I would have tinnitus for ever more. These songs are incredible.
