 Listening to Soundtracks For The Blind for the first time in years and, my word, I'd forgotten how strange it is, even (or perhaps especially) coming from Swans. I'm still not entirely sure whether I really enjoy it or not but it's definitely got a really weird, dark atmosphere that's absolutely like nothing else I've ever heard.

 Has anyone else heard The Body Lovers record? It's a post-Swans Gira project that still features Jarboe and Norman Westberg amongst others. It's probably the closest thing to Soundtracks For The Blind I've heard and from what I gather was made in a similar way, from cutting and pasting different recordings. Definitely worth a listen, I'm very surprised more people don't mention it actually.
