Literally, why?

Trust The Fund

>ruin
their 2010s trilogy is stellar and their comeback was one of the very few that ever properly worked for any artist and basically I fucked you're mom (the atmosphere was relaxed and fully consensual)
>>
>zoomer
It came out in 2014 so it's a late millenial classic. The only zoomer who was listening to it was me because my country's leading rock magazine devoted an entire issue to Swans and I was a terminally online sperg who watched Fantano review this album
>>
>>131001081
it's easy when you've never been commercial and were tied into a specific aesthetic you can't escape
>>
>>131001081
>their 2010s trilogy is stellar
No it's not. The Seer is alright but far from stellar, the other two are painfully mediocre. You just happened to be there when they came out and can't see how bad they've aged in comparison to their earlier works.
>>
>>131000977
>their 80s and 90s output made them one of the best rock bands ever
Did they though? I don’t think the early albums were widely or critically acclaimed upon release nor is Swans by any means like a mainstream band.
>>
>>131001224
I wasn't talking about critics or audience, it just happens that their music was very unique and consistently great.
>>
>>131001134
if not for The Seer and TBK I'd be probably still listening to Odd Future """classics""" today claiming that those were the days and rap now just isn't the same or something like that
your attempts at demoralizing me are completely futile

You just proved my point. You love those albums because they were important to your music perspective at a certain point in time. It's great that you like them so much, but that doesn't mean that Gira didn't sell out.

They were a casualty of Fantano and 2010s /mu/. So many stupid kids pretending to like Swans to be edgy. I saw a kid in a Filth shirt the other day in fact
>>
>>131001577
Filth is based tho, but Cop is the patrician's choice. Just like 80s Sonic Youth, 80s/90s Swans released only good stuff, including Burning World.

You're not that special, boy. I'm a zoomer (29 yo) and discovered them back when The Seer came out. I got to see them live during The Glowing Man tour in 2016, and a lot of people around my age were there, even your average tumblr e-girl. Note that this happened in South America.

I think To Be Kind was the first interesting thing to happen with Post-Rock since the 90s. It's a phenomenal record

Swans is mediocrity incarnate. You guys have the worst fucking taste in music.

Around when /mu/ first came to be, picrel was the average Swans fan. Harrisburg Hipster douche with a fat trust fund.

If you've ever met anyone with a trust fund, you'll know most flip their fucking shit when you say 'trust fund' pejoratively, even when it's not aimed directly at them. So it's always going to be said in a Swans thread because some rich kid can't help but get mad. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.

Gira, as far as my knowledge goes, grew up poor. So it's a double-punch, you piss if the Swans fan by calling them out as a faggot playing with Daddy's money, AND you piss them off by misrepresenting their favorite band.

I was 10/11 when this came out. Go fuck yourself.

>>131001114
A boomer made this album. A "Late Millennial Classic" from that era is like whatever Tyler The Creator, Yung Lean, Kill Bill, Cloud Nothings or whoever else you can name from that era that was actually born in the late 80s to mid 90s made. That's it. Just end this fucking board already.
