i just got NYCG&F and i fucking love it

youthoftomorrow · 04.15.2006, 02:04 AM

every song is good, which is a rarity. Kim's vocals can really bother me (i can't stand her songs on Washing Machine) but i like her songs on this one. "NYCG&F" is one of SY's best.

yr thoughts?

how could anyone not like it

vasanum · 04.15.2006, 03:03 AM

i really like this record. i only recently bought it as well, but it's amazing.

i went into it not expecting anything, as the reviews i've seen usually tend to love it or absolutely despise it - all things aside, it blew me away.

NYG&F is my least favorite of all SY albums.

Kim's singing on Washing Machine maybe her best singing.

marleypumpkin · 04.15.2006, 03:52 AM

I love Kim's word spoken poetry lyrics on "Lightnin'". & the lyrics to,
"Small Flowers Crack Concrete" are fucking amazing.

It's probably my least favourite SY album but it still kicks ass.

PAULYBEE2656 · 04.15.2006, 05:27 AM

amazing album, took me a while to get it (as in get into it rather than purcahse it) but one of my favourite sy albums.

marleypumpkin · 04.15.2006, 05:32 AM

The artwork to this album is well put together. My favorite piece of artwork in that album is D.A. Levy's, "The Spiral Drawing".

Toxa · 04.15.2006, 06:42 AM

amazing album! one of my sy favourites

Washing Machine · 04.15.2006, 08:14 AM

Truely a masterpiece! Hardly anyone likes tho. I played it to my friends and they wanted to run out the room by the second song lol! I think you have to really be a SY fan to appreciate its subtle beauty!

marleypumpkin · 04.15.2006, 08:19 AM

Yeah, it's a real simple mixture of artwork by the group, & other artist's.
Including the man, the genious, William S. Burrough's. What an album cover.

I love this album!

I played Washing Machcine for my friends once and they wanted to run out of the room halfway through "Becuz". Some people just don't understand....*sigh*

Yeah....NYCG&F is a great album.

Alex's Trip · 04.15.2006, 09:45 AM

Not my favorite album. I think it is okay, though. I haven't had much time to 'digest' it.

hebbel · 04.15.2006, 10:22 AM

counting out streamxsonik subway i think this album is better than anything sy has ever done...

marleypumpkin · 04.15.2006, 10:48 AM

Oh, how sweet it is to get a nut by you. (ha ha) (sorry Marvin Gaye)

Mudride · 04.15.2006, 12:39 PM

thats a nice album ! thats the album that brought them to South America for the 1st time. Fond memories of that era

samuel · 04.15.2006, 02:41 PM

This was the second album I bought by Sonic Youth. I was expecting another Dirty because that was the first album I bought. As you could imagine, I was surprised by the sound, but for some reason I loved it right away. I think it's one of Sonic Youth's more unique albums and I love how it only has 8 tracks for some reason. My favorite song is definitely the opener Free City Rhymes.

SonikJesus · 04.15.2006, 02:47 PM

I love this album too. I don't get why so many people dislike it. Free City Rhymes is definately the best.

krastian · 04.15.2006, 02:47 PM

Do any of you freaks here remember Lenny?

samuel · 04.15.2006, 02:48 PM

I can't remember his last name.
