I've seen Swans 3 times now and they are incredible. I met Michael Gira a few months ago but was very shy (I stupidly asked how was he and he said "here". He was very polite and shook my hand, mind). I think that modern Swans albums are sort of becoming a bit stale (The Seer/To Be Kind is God tier mind), but live they are a hypnotic, shaminstic experience.
As for Sleaford Mods? They are so weird. The singer (if you can call him that) is pretty cool, but the other guy just drank beer and pressed a button on a laptop and I found that showing contempt for the audience. I like them in small batches. As for mods in general? The Jam are a quintenessial British band if you ask me!
As for harsh noise, I do listen to Merzbow and Sunn O))), but as I get older I just don't enjoy noise for noise sake anymore (Monoliths and Dimensions is still an amazing album as they use horns and ambience inbetween the sheer noise terror). I still adore BORIS though. They have bankrupted me! The only gig I had to leave was BOREDOMS as I felt like I was going to go deaf towards the end.
I'm getting a bit more mellow as I age (currently listening to Sting and Robbie Williams today haha).
