Swans: We Rose From Your Bed With The Sun In Our Head
Editor's note: I'd posted this announcement about Swans' We Rose From Your Bed With The Sun In Our Head on Tuesday, but was told through their PR contact to keep a lid on this until Friday, February 3rd. Jumping the gun, this series of live albums actually went on sale yesterday and are now completely sold out. So, good luck on E-Bay.
Following up their amazing 2010 release, My Father Will Guide Me Up a Rope to the Sky, Swans are releasing a series of handmade live albums, We Rose From Your Bed With The Sun In Our Head. If you go to Michael Gira's Young God Records site, you will find a list of purchase options with sets ranging from $30 to $600. Yeah, not in my price range, either, but it's all genuine and limited editino artwork from Gira himself. As collectors know, there is a price to owning something unique. Plus, your money goes into the Swans' upcoming studio album, The Seer. Considering the brilliance of its predecessor, any money being put into The Seer is money superbly invested.

My Father Will Guide Me Up a Rope to the Sky was reviewed at No Ripcord in 2010.
