They are by far the most mature and intelligent death metal band in existence. It is even safe to say they are currently the greatest death metal band in the world.13 more days.
For those interested in the Swans record, it is quite a satisfying experience. I don't want to say too much about it yet but the first impressions after 3 listens are that it's maybe not as claustrofobic and daunting as The Seer is. It has power of its own though. And my seal of approval.
Hey. I just checked Amazon-the CD available at this point looks like a special edition 3 discs. I believe the actual release is two discs. Do you have the special edition? Curious-if you think the extra disc (or album if your listening to vinyl) is worth the extra couple of $?

I just got the regular 2CD set. 3 vinyls would be too many for my patience to flip through .
I passed on the extra DVD. The Seer also had it and I think it didn't include much more than the mini documentary that you can see also from youtube or Pitchfork's front page. Not sure though so take this with a grain of NaCl.
edit: Oh and the contents on just the 2CDs is worth double the money. It's good!

Thanks. I went ahead and ordered the 3 cd set. I'm sure I could have waited a few months and got the basic double disc release cheaper and used-but I don't want to wait.
I'm dead serious!
The only kind of Death Metal I like is Tech/Prog Death.
Entombed, Cannibal Corpse, Six Feet Under, Morbid Angel, Master, Devourment etc etc are just not for me.
