I was not a fan of The Seer when it was released and I haven't changed my mind after re-listening to the opening track. While the Gil Scott-Heron track was fairly captivating: I go for that one.
Lunacy is about as good as it gets for modern Swans and I still prefer other Gil-Scott Heron here.
Lunacy is about the only Swans track from the 2010s I might vote for over Gil... this one's a pain. Nearly incomparable too. _________________ Doubles & Conch

Love Gil, but Lunacy and Piece of the Sky are probably my favourite Swans revival songs. I went with Lunacy here since it's shorter and more single-like. Again, if it was the title track from I'm New Here vs Lunacy, that'd give me a proper headache. _________________ Overall chart Fake overall chart
Yeah Lunacy is aight, but I'd prefer to see a few other Swans songs from that era in the tournament (esp. A Little God in my Hands off their next album)
Me & The Devil is my favourite discovery of this tournament so far, so vote for Gil.
Deffo Gil, but if we're talking about aging soul singers who made contemporary comebacks on XL in the early part of the last decade, this song isn't quite on the same level as Bobby Womack's 'Please Forgive My Heart', which I really should've nominated.
