This stuff is too chill. Darker and a bit more foreboding than their other stuff, but still beautiful. The record also clocks in at 66:06. Coincidence? Regardless, best study music. Srsly.

Swans used to play really harsh and noisy industrial music. The kind that made you want to jam a knife in your ear because it was so brutal and aggressive. And then they pulled a 180 and started playing experimental post-punk kind of stuff. The stuff I posted here, is of the latter. But all that aggression and nastiness... it's still there, albeit a bit more subtle and subdued. This album in particular is pretty tame compared to some of their other stuff, and if you dig this, make an effort to check out the rest of their discography. One last piece of news: they recently reformed and are due for a new album this year!
The last Pixies album before the subsequent breakup and often the most overlooked. It gets a lot of slack, for being more linear, more generic rockish, and lacking Kim Deal. While these may be true, nothing changes the fact that this record is pretty awesome. It's no "Surfer Rosa" or "Doolittle", but c'mon, it's the still the fucking Pixies. Even at their "worst", their putting out some really solid if not some of their best material. Get on this.
