Porque cuando haces una encuesta en éste foro solo te da la opción para hasta 10 items, y el último disco de Sonic Youth tiene 12 canciones, asíque el que hizo ésta encuesta dejo dos afuera. Saludos.

listening to it for the second time, again i get chills i have never gotten from a Sonic Youth song before, i have been listening to them now nearly 10 years, and never has one of their songs stuck out so much, let alone in the first two listens

it is a total group effort too, Kim's quivering voice, with Thurston's acoustic organics and Lee just ghostly with his echoed slide especially at the 2:40 mark when both Kim's voice cracking and Lee hitting his highest notes as Steve is the lighthouse keeps the ship on course

i don't know much about the back story of the lyrics or title, but it's is unintentionally (intentionally?) appropriate when you consider yes that this song reminds you of Golden Blue, the outro has the tone of Shadow of a Doubt, Kim even sings "All the money is gone" a line lifted all the way back 27 years ago from "I dreamed I dream", and a little after taste of Sweet Shine for good measure

even even with all that, it's still so completely original in it's approach melding voice and guitar in complete frailty that makes me shudder in a way that very few songs have done to me personally

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to pantophobia again.

anti-orgasm

overall review is that the best moments on this are not as good as the best moments on either of the last two albums although the worst moments on this are better than the worst of the last two

No, on vinyl. Even if they have to re-issue it.

True fans get a full-body tattoo of Thurston, with his all of his features super-imposed over their own.

Anything less and Beck wins.

1. malibu gas station (thurstons rhytm guitar in the melodic part is awsome)
2. poison arrow
3. antenna, mass history, what we know
4. leaky lifeboat (would be 2. place if there wasnt the lalala-part in it)
5. walkin blue, now way

the rest i dont like at all

poison arrow, leaky lifeboat and malibu gas station fit very well to matador: it reminds me of yo la tengo and pavement.
