Being a "fan" doesn't give you any special insight on what a band should sound like.
You either like it, or you don't.

Yeah, but Skuj should totally still listen to the pre-My Father Will... Swans because he seems to love the band, and it only makes sense that he should not deny himself the pleasure of listening to those brilliant earlier records.
Though it's true- Swans = Michael Gira, period. I get irritated with the " Jarboe or it's not Swans" crowd because that's hugely unfair to Gira as a driving creative force.
