Don’t know if anyone saw my post about spending college money on this but I did it !!!

OH GOD YES
5
wait is this a vinyl remaster?
5
Yes sir, and a FGN DL. Michael also mentioned FGN would get a vinyl release in the future.
7
If that’s the case then there is hope that swans are dead can also get a vinyl release. Fingers crossed!
9
if Die Tur can get a vinyl release, i fucking hope SAD can. complete the sftb era trilogy!

FGN was already on vinyl. But one can still hope

I want it so bad man. That record literally has multiple of my favourite swans songs on it.

I actually like that the title track doesn’t sound aggressively different. This album always sounded good and Gira’s remasters have mostly been very judicious (with the exception of the compression and, worse, track edits on White Light). I am super excited to hear the whole thing tho and especially if he’s managed to actually clean up FGN in any way given its source limits

Now up on Bandcamp, but it doesn't seem to include Feel Good Now;

I'm currently listening to the tittle track which you can stream. I can hear some extra sharpness in the snare drum, but one just one listen, it doesn't sound like a major upgrade.
Will be interesting to hear the remastering treatment of the intense acoustic tracks like You're Not Real Girl and Real Love.

There was a comment on instagram when the swans account said Feel Good Now would be remastered too. I'm guessing that's where we will see a bigger impact.

I’m very curious to see how tracks recorded on a 1980’s Sony Walkman can be remastered!
2
Lmao it's definitely an interesting challenge.
1
Looks like the title track is also the original duration (as opposed to CoG/WoS reissue that edits a few tracks). Hopefully Our Love Lies is kept intact.

Thanks for bringing this up! I’ll have a look at it tonight, looks awesome!

Interesting, the remaster of Children of God doesn't have I'll Swallow You. I guess that was exclusive to the 2CD compilation with World of Skin? I got used to it as a closer for the album.
2
I believe I'll Swallow You was originally a b-side on a single, which is why it got put in the 2CD comp.

Interesting, thanks

Ordered.
C’mon November.
It’s been years since I’ve heard the original. In recent years I’ve only had the COG/WOS version. I’m fine with it but looking forward to hearing it as it was released.

where's the best place to preorder in UK/EU?
1
Would be mute records, but it doesn’t seem to be available there right now

I ordered from Young God, it's signed and including postage came to around £30. There's the risk of a customs charge upon arrival tho.
It's in stock and available on Norman Records for £22.49, and to my mind they're one of the best about with really great sturdy packaging.

every fucking time I want to buy anything online it comes out to triple the listed price because of conversion and shipping

Sweeeet

any word on what version of Our Love Lies is on this reissue??
I assume most people have heard the more acoustic version since it replaced the original version on all YGR reissues of Children of God.
1
Any chance it’s getting released on Spotify?
1
If only The Burning world would be next for a remaster or streaming service release. Not a huge fan of listening to stuff on YouTube.
1
I have Children of God/World of Skin and I'm debating if I want to get this. On the one hand I don't have Feel Good Now but on the other I hear the sound on it is not great. For people who have the heard the original album and the CoG/WoS version, which do you prefer?

Anyone had theirs dispatched by mute yet?

My CoG CD order from Mute arrived in London this morning.

Mine arrived a day late in Manchester. Well worth the wait.
