Mary christ is one of my favorite.

I just find it unbelievably annoying, and when I think about, it gets stuck in my head and won't leave.

Death & the Maiden · 05.01.2009, 06:52 AM

I just listened to Jet Set for the first time in ages (actually it's the first SY album in awhile), and I actually quite liked it. Well, except for Thurston's tracks, I find those to be as bad as I remembered them.

for me its rather ripped, too.
there are some moments, but way less then on every other record of the youth. my itunes says I am right, too.

Rather ripped.

PAULYBEE2656 · 05.01.2009, 03:35 PM

experimental jet set followed by rather ripped followed by something damn good.

i dont understand u guys. many of you seem to dislike ejs. i cant decide whether ejs, ddn, washing mashine, goo, sister, evol, atl, nycg is better. to me, nycgf is a little more "inventive" or something than the others, but ejs is the same league as sister, ddn and so on.

Derek · 05.01.2009, 05:07 PM

The songs sound like they were written in 10 minutes almost.

The fuck? You're honestly going to compare such works of excellence like Candle, Schizophrenia, Rain King, The Sprawl, Silver Rocket, Catholic Block, Cotton Crown, etc to such shits Tokyo Eye? Quest For The Cup? Skink? Sweet Shine, among the rest of the album?

Damn if that isn't the craziest thing I've heard all day.

There's nothing not to love about any of their records up to Murray Street, even if you take personal taste into account. Sonic Nurse has one great song (Golden Blue), and Rather Ripped brings back bad memories and a lot of sadness. Reene is a good song, but it's not enough.

armidasr · 05.02.2009, 11:26 AM

silver session ???

greedrex · 05.02.2009, 12:22 PM

right. especially Tokyo Eye and Skink. they are brilliant.

Trasher02 · 05.03.2009, 04:38 PM

RR followed by Dirty.
I don't think they're horrid albums they're just my least favourite albums.

reginald · 05.04.2009, 06:17 PM

As much as I LOVE the music, I think the PRODUCTION of Sister leaves something to be desired. It's thin. So is EVOL, for the most part, to me. I hope SY remasters these and gets the UMMMPHHHH I like put into these albums. Other than that, I can't say I don't like any of their releases as far as music. I even LOVE Rather Ripped for it's more poppy and simple aspect.

Skuj · 05.04.2009, 10:09 PM

WHY OH WHY DO SO MANY "SONIC YOUTH FANS" DISLIKE RATHER RIPPED???

I just don't understand the lack of love for this extremely solid album. ***Shakes head and both fists at the non-believers.***

Yeah...Dirty is fucking Ace, you people! I don't know, maybe I'm older than most of you (47), but when Dirty came out in 92, it was fucking WORSHIPPED. And it deserved the worship.

I think EJST+NS is the most underappreciated SY album.

Damn, this is a tough question....the "worst" SY album? It will still be a "good" album in my books.....ok.....Goo never really did a whole lot for me.
