Swans—To Be Kind. I’m not sure how I feel about it. The production value is excellent, the vocals are powerful, the layering is up there with the best, and yet some of the songs just didn’t work for me. Toussaint Louverture!
And So I Watch You From Afar—All Hail Bright Futures. Pure joy.
Wolves in the Throne Room—Celestite. A black metal band makes an excellent ambient/drone album with neither vocals nor drums. It’s beautiful.
