Wonderful Swans
My favourite band in a great venue, well organised in every respect.

Swans, Roundhouse, London - 27th May 2017
Bone-shakingly powerful
Everything about the evening coalesces into the quintessential 'Swans live' experience. The brutality of the music, the toll your ears and body take from the volume, the fatigue from the long sets (Swans played for over 2 hours, with an hour from Thurston Moore and a little less from Little Annie before that, makes it a 4+ hour odyssey) giving way for the mind to delve, losing yourself in Gira's mantras, repeated ad nauseum. The greatest live rock band today, and I'm glad I caught them at the peak of their power before the end of the current Swans era.
