DESCRIPTION :
Goodbye to this stellar version of Swans. Newly Sentient Being features superb recordings of Swans' final concert of the ""Big Sound"" era, the apotheosis of 15 years of cosmic sonic expressionism, alternately heavenly and debased, visceral and transcendent. Recorded November 28, 2025 in Berlin. Over 2 ½ hours of music, includes a wealth of new material never recorded elsewhere and a stunning DVD of the performance. NSB is up there with the best of Swans' legendary live records. They close this chapter with love and unbridled passion. ""Now I offer my praise to the righteous group of humans, the musicians that made our final foray into the sonic ether a reality: Norman Westberg, Dana Schechter, Phil Puleo, Larry Mullins, Kristof Hahn, Christopher Pravdica... and I was in there flailing somewhere too. "" - Michael Gira / Swans.
