what ever happend to the evol boxset with the infamous recording of beck covering the whole album?

They need to do this fuckin' album. That Catholic Block Demo was amazing and I need to hear more of that fucking demo shit.

I recall Kim, I think, in an interview talking about how complex it was putting together the structures of the songs on Sister...they were charting it out or something...how sick would it be to hear the songs in the early stages???

EDIT: I seem to remember her mentioning having working tapes of the songs too...

And that radio session in it's entirety would be amazing...

I can't be sure she didn't say the same about Sister, but I feel like you may be thinking of Daydream, where they had all the parts on cards they'd swap around..like A, B, C...or maybe ZZ, Dino, Ubu...

Curiously, there was a "Sprawl" demo on a mixtape after the Daydream deluxe was released, so there's clearly more from that goldmine...

What's stopping them from doing a Super Deluxe? :D

yeah I'm dying to hear that.

I don't know what y'all are talking about. I have the SISTER Delux Edition. It sucks.

like what?! Beck covering the whole album!?!?! I WANT.

yeah this was announced back when Eternal came out. He covered Evol in its entirely, acoustic.

Oh right. Part of his cover thingy/record club he was doing that year? Didn't he cover an INXS album with Liars?

What has happened indeed?
I'd have taken Evol and Sister deluxe before Dirty and Goo.

I would enjoy seeing SY perform Sister in it's full via SoniCam once this gets released. Like they did with Murray Street in 02'

Yea, Sister should have been issued right alongside DDN. And I actually really dig the analog sound of Sister. Just bump it up a notch and dig the tone!

might have been cuz of ownership and record company issues...

SISTER was the first album, well, cassette. i ever heard of them back in either 1989 or 1990. it was a SST copy as well, for a fucking $1! The lousy used record store didn't know, and still don't know about "good music" and they end up putting all sorts of really amazing stuff in the $1 bins. like wtf? i found Jason Lowenstein's solo album in there last summer on cd and there aint no way in hell they've never heard of Sebadoh, because they like to sell that shit expensive because being they are the only record store for miles and miles, they can get away with that shit. also, it's a fucking waste of time going into that store anymore. the last time i was in there with a $40 store credit i've had since last fall, and still not a damn thing in there. it's no wonder i don't buy my records locally and have to rely on a friend who lives just outside of town who's "in the know" with one of canadas leading record distributors. and i get all my stuff thru him instead. he ended up getting me the all the 180 gram reissues on lp for a decent price. it all started when he told me about the Daydream Nation boxset, and then went on from there and got Goo & Dirty.

but ya, SISTER does have it's own unique sound. in my minds eye, every album i ever heard after that sounded too polished. and i guess it has to do with that lo-fi sound it was orignally done in. it even makes EVOL sound cleaned up. but i dont care. all their albums makes me shake my fat ass and cause the pictures on the walls to not be level anymore.

great, now i got to go put that album on, as i brought all my SY albums with me when i left town.
