SWANS

Real Love

([ no label ]) Used LP $40.00

Recorded February through April 1986 live in Europe. "Psychic suffering [and] extremely powerful," says J. Eric Smith. " 'A Hanging' ... invokes the pain-maddened damned as [Swans] trudge endlessly through chest-deep gullies of shit, calling for God's forgiveness, recognizing (finally, too late) that no one needs His mercy more than they do." Single hand-numbered copy in stock (#502).
