Anyway, if you prefer to start with some of their earlier work (a good option to fully understand the greatness and evolution os Swans' music), I'd say that you should hear Children of God and then move forwards or backwards, depending on which "side" (slow/heavy or more melodic) you prefer.

I'm going to the Porto gig. I already missed Mão Morta and Pop Dell'Arte (OMFG) (btw, do you know if they sing Juramento sem Bandeira in duo with MM?), i can't miss another cosmic event.
I will probably start with Children of God, and then start from the beginning. thanks everyone
