Praise Your Name – The Angels Of Light
The Angels Of Light were Michael Gira’s project after he disbanded the mighty Swans, and this is the first track off the first Angels album, New Mother. This project explored Gira’s interest in Americana and Appalachian music.

S.o.t.D. – Miracle of Love – Swans
One of my favourite bands growing up. Their initial sound was a slow, brutal, pummeling dirge, dealing with really bleak subjects. Absolutely the most punishingly loud live act I’ve ever seen, bar none. In time their sound transformed into something still very intense, but much broader in influence and style. The instrumentation expanded, the structure of the songs opened up, the lyrical content flourished. The one constant though remained Michæl Gira’s amazing voice.
