Cheers for that. 35 years, bloody hell! I've been following them for about 28 or so. I feel ooooollllddd :(

Ditto with the Swans Filth reissue. Remember owning the LP and 'Raping A Slave' EP on vinyl (and paying a small fortune back in the day on a couple of badly pressed imports). Cop is still my fav' though, if only for the rememberance of ear splitting gigs and the Gira/Westburg onstage intensity that supported it over here.
If I'm honest, I've kept abreast of their career, but not really enjoyed anything much post 'World Of Skin' albums. Saw them on the 'Burning World' tour before hearing the record and was decidedly unimpressed. Still my least fav' Swans release. Can't quite undertand the mountain of praise heaped on em' these days, as I find their sound quite pedestrian in comparison to those brutal and uncompromising early releases.
