So we can agree this is the most underrated Sonic Youth record
Sonic Nurse
nah b... that would be nyc ghosts and flowers
I'd agree. One of my favourites and I never see much said about it in SY threads
no star
late sonic best sonic
washing machine > all
What do you like about it?
I think it's solid with a few great songs, nothing special
its definitely their best imo too.
Washing Machine
Sister
Evol
Daydream
Sonic nurse
Murray Street
Dirty
The rest are all good, but not really rankable for me, no standouts.
imo the song writing is more fleshed out and the noise/guitars are at the perfect pitch and sound. the drums are also very solid and it fares much much much better than a lot of the other sonic youth records
can we all agree sonic youth is a shitty fucking band
No, fuck you.
It's one I need to listen to more, always loved Little Trouble Girl and The Diamond Sea though
You hit all my high points as well, but I'm also partial to Thousand Leaves.
No.
>Posting all these 90s/00s albums
>No early 80s albums to be found
Yikes.
not a fan of the first few. theyre fine for noise rock albums, but if i want something like that im going elsewhere lol. sonic youth is better at the melodic side of it.
I mostly agree with this. I love their sound but I need structure to enjoy listening to them.
you seem to have failed to recognize that my opinion is vastly superior to yours.
however, I forgive you.
NYC Ghosts and Flowers is definitely the most underrated SY album.
Every album released by Sonic Youth after 2000 is just pleasant but formulaic noise rock.
Your mom's cock is underrated.
This makes me excited to listen to it for the first time.
I always see the first 2 noisy albums rated highly on here buy I've always found them structureless and tedious. Songs like Rain King show they can do noise in a much more interesting way
This doesn't apply to sonic nurse or rather ripped at all

Not bad but Sonic Nurse is at least great tier
now that I think of, you're kind of right: that's not even noise-rock, it's just alt pop-rock with dissonance and feedback.
but that's just as formulaic as you could expect from senile Sonic Youth.
