Top 7 Swans Albums

Ooh, I love Swans. Add an Art Zoyd one and I will be one super happy camper. I could blabber on about both of those for ages, and in fact I have. :) ;)

And to think I got really heavily into Swans attempting to change Paul's mind on the band. Even if one doesn't like something, there can be value in knowing one's enemy or more exactly having an informed view of that which one dismisses/ dislikes/ disdains.

1 Soundtracks for the Blind (12 points)
2 Children of God (8 points)
3 Omniscience (6 points)
4 The Glowing Man (4 points)
5 To Be Kind (3 points)
6 The Great Annihilator (2 points)
7 White Light From the Mouth of Infinity (one point)

I do dislike leaving out The Seer, really warmed up to it, and "A Piece of the Sky" ranks amongst my very favourite Swans tracks. My order could change as those including the Seer I love,

* Omniscience is my favourite live Swans album and it is up there with the best for me. I would hope it could be included in the ranking despite it not making your discography list. It's one of my very favourite live albums. I adore it.

As for Deliquescnece, I haven't managed to hear it. Of course it was very limited release sale and now not available and the youtube stream doesn't work for my region (I don't use VPNs/ proxy services and such).
