Sonic Youth - Confusion is Sex

All songs - 5/5

X- Los Angeles

1. Your Phone's Off The Hook (But You're Not) -5

5. Sugerlight -4
6. Los Angeles-5

9. The World's A Mess Its In My Kiss -5

Okay, let me rate my first favorite album.
I was 8, and it was 1998's Version 2.0 by Garbage.

1. Temptation Waits 3/5 - can't really pinpoint why I like this song
2. I Think I'm Paranoid 3/5 - my first favorite song, the video's sexy
3. When I Grow Up 2/5 - such an upbeat song, reminds me of Nickelodeon's "Caitlin's Way"
4. Medication 5/5 - beautiful vocals
5. Special 2/5 - my mom's favorite song, so it reminds me of her when I hear it
6. Hammering in My Head 3/5 - wonderful lyrics and an excellent delivery
7. Push It 3/5 - first single and a good choice
8. The Trick Is to Keep Breathing 5/5 - interesting layers and beats
9. Dumb 2/5 - an in-your-face song, not bad at all
10. Sleep Together 3/5 - I think the chorus(?) is so eerie, love the line "if we come together, we'll go down forever"
11. Wicked Ways 2/5 - it always reminded me of country, but it's another fun song with interesting vocal effects
12. You Look So Fine 4/5 - great ender

I thought I would have given some 1's or even 0's, but I guess I still have a little 8-year-old left in me. Very catchy... to me at least.

automatic bzooty, do you know how Maureen Tucker's solo work is? I wanna check it out, but I wanna know if its worth it or not.

i have no idea! and i've been wondering myself.

i've been wanting to give the one with some sonics on it a listen, but as you said... no idea if it'll be worth it.

Haha, okay. I'll have to investigate. I only have 1 VU album. I need more. Love that band!! And I'll have to get some Maureen solo work as well.

heh, you do need more! which one do you have?

In my opinion, every album has a 5/5 track. When I rate tracks I compare them to the rest of the album, or sometimes other songs in a bands catalogue.

I wouldn't say every album has a 5/5 track, just a best track.

For now, I just feel like doing two albums.

Sonic Nurse:

Pattern Recognition - 4.5
Unmade Bed - 4
Dripping Dream - 5
Mariah Carey and the Arthur Doyle Hand Cream - 5 (a very underrated song)
Stones - 6
Dude Ranch Nurse - 4
New Hampshire - 3.5
Paper Cup Exit - 3.5
I Love You Golden Blue - 4
Peace Attack - 5


Rather Ripped (a fairly decent album, actually):

Reena - 4.5
Incinerate - 4.5
Do You Believe in Rapture? - 5 (i love the angelic sound of those guitar chords)
Sleepin' Around - 3.5 (the noise part saves it)
What a Waste - 3
Jams Run Free - 5
Rats - 4.5 (almost a 5, but not quite)
Turquoise Boy - 3
Lights Out - 4
The Neutral - 4
Pink Steam - 5
Or - 3.5

Haha. I'll do Nurse, Rather Ripped + The Eternal (although I think I've done all before..)

Man, why so much hate on Sleepin' Around? It's much better live, but still, the album version isn't all THAT bad...

Reena-3.5
Incinerate-3.5

I think the biggest problem with that album is the production. Very muffled, muddy, and the whole thing just seems like it never gets off the ground.
