God, Her and Amnesia kick some serious ass. Another great live album by this great band.

This 1992 live album kicks off with the swirling vortex of sound that is Mother's Milk, a soaring tour de force with its driving beat and beautifully macabre lyrics in Jarboe's haunting voice at its most powerful. In its dark cadences, this track sounds like the fierce conclusion of an occult ritual. The soft version on The Great Annihilator transforms Mother's Milk into a soft torch song.

Beginning with the surging, sweeping crunch of "Mother's Milk," with some great Jarboe vocals over it all, Omniscience is a live album which benefits from the inclusion of some otherwise unrecorded or unreleased Swans tracks. Taken from dates on the 1992 Love of Life tour, the album showcases a newly solidified touring lineup of Gira, Jarboe, Steele, returning veteran Kizys, and Vincent Signorelli, drummer on the two previous albums. The sound is clear and sharp, a distinct change from the sometimes muddy official bootlegs of years past. Swans - 1992 - Omniscience. TrackListing: 01. Mother's Milk.
