You sir, are a Godamn downer

I voted Murray Street, I love all three of those records though.

i actually really like rather ripped

k-krack 05.23.2007 06:18 PM

It's nice to see something other than negativity towards RR. I like it. Not one of my favourites, of course, but it's a good album. Rep, syntax.

HECKLER SPRAY 05.23.2007 06:28 PM

People who dislike this record want to compare it to their 80's album, which is damned rubbish.
I like it too.
But I must admitt I prefer Nurse, there's more freakout, impro, dissonance,...

SynthethicalY 05.23.2007 07:02 PM

I think you are right, RR is held to the standard of DN. But I think it is a classic in its own way.

HECKLER SPRAY 05.23.2007 07:08 PM

Yeah, most of the songs are very catchy, more direct than usually, but it sounds good, especially live versions.

SynthethicalY 05.23.2007 07:09 PM

I consider RR a pop album, and I think it made sense of them going this direction. It is them experimenting on a different version.

HECKLER SPRAY 05.23.2007 07:14 PM

I agree with that, it's real good pop album. Very coherent, consistent.

timtimtim 05.23.2007 11:20 PM

I don't consider rather ripped a pop album. I might consider it to be a pop album by sonic youth standards maybe but really dirty and Goo I thought were poppier than rather ripped. I'm surprised that RR has so many votes. I think it's a pretty good album but it has been bashed a lot.

Sonic Nurse for the win - i love the kind of nostalgic vibe i get from it - particularly from Peace Attack, Golden Blue and Unmade Bed

Then rather ripped

Murray Street is rather meh until Karenology, then it picks up its game

I agree with el duderino!

Murray street is wonderful for hazy days spent in half slumber or drugged out fuzz, but as a whole it is a bit un fulfilling. I dig nurse so muhc. it is perfect to me, even in peace attack mode, altghoug the album would ahve been KILLER without peace attack

rather ripped keeps me coming home again.

prijateljice 05.31.2007 08:14 AM

rather ripped kix ass!

but, nevertheless, washing machine would be my personal nr. 1

Bicorn Halfelven 05.31.2007 04:03 PM

I think I had expected Rather Ripped to sound like the previous two records, and was a bit put off on the first listen or two.

After putting it away for a while and coming back to it, I like it a lot more.

Not one of my favorites, but enjoyable in it's own right.

Androol 06.01.2007 09:58 PM
