Daughters, Swans, and Brutal Guitars: Horror Vinyl Therapy
In the wonderfully grim realm of terrifying albums, 'You Won't Get What You Want' by Daughters and Swans' 'To Be Kind' stand out—as do their colorful allegations baggage, including abuse accusations swirling around Daughters' lead Alexis Marshall and a statement from Michael Gira of Swans. Enter 'I've Seen All I Need to See' by The Body, a record shedding kitschy slasher soundtracks for the emotional equivalent of being trapped in the bleakest horror-film's grueling fight scene, accentuated by Douglas Dunn's poem 'The Kaleidoscope.' If you love brutality set to blown-out drums and detuned guitars you’ll feel right at home.

Only in 2025 do albums invite you to a musical horror show complete with a side of serious abuse allegations and enough sonic brutality to traumatically outdo any actual slasher flick soundtrack.
When your album is so brutal it makes other horror records look like nursery rhymes—and the band drama doubles as unexpected plot twists.
I’ve seen all I need to see: abused allegations, brutal guitars, and poetic darkness, because who needs peace when you can have art imitating a nightmare?
