I always associate this album with the fall time. I have the distinct memory of discovering this album when I was 14 and listening to it all the way through as I walked through the woods during the fall. Such a perfect and melancholic album.

    Same, saw them the same night as Swans and ended up with a fun tinnitus souvenir.

    Worth it.

      That must have been a hell of a show. I hope you had the sense to wear some earplugs!

        I did! Swans were louder – including a fun bit where Michael Gira waved his arms around at the band "conducting" them to play louder, culminating in him and Norman Westberg exchanging yelled insults and spitting at each other. Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Thee Oh Sees played too, good time. Was just the right age where it really blew my mind wide open.
