Sweet. Then crank it up. I envy you. As for me, I'll give the jam section about a minute, then skip to the next track. Trust me, I wish I could love it, but I don't.

this album is simply beautiful. it is like a landscape painting or a romanesque palace or cathedral, elegant, choreographed without sounding too contrives, artistic, visual, creative, and of course we discussed all this on the Alice and Wonderland thread, as this album is definitaly an almost mystical journey into Sonic Youth. Every piece is so fluidly dynamic and intergrally interconnected with the preceding and following pieces of music, it is in a word, a divinely perfect album. It was my first sonic album, I picked it up the day it came out, it was gorgeous then, and as I have lived such a life in the past 12 years, it is even more gorgeous now...

hands down the greatest sonic youth album, a style and era which neither could not nor shouldn't be duplicated, but rather sincerely enjoyed entirely on its own for its own sake..
