Sonic Youth Album Cup 2009 Round One: Washing Machine v The Eternal
 

OK, you have until next sunday to vote. See the main thread for details, but VOTE FOR WHO YOU WANT TO WIN.

This is a hard one. Both are good but doesn't belong among my favorites. I think I'll vote Washing Machine, but I'll have to think it over.

!!!

this one is quite hard, for now i say washing machine, given some years that answer could change

WM for me. Quite an easy choice with The Eternal being so new.

For me Washing Machine is nigh on unfuckable with.

Ah jeez. Diamond Sea kicks so much ass, but The Eternal is a better album as a whole.

I voted for The Eternal, both good albums though

Washing Machine

Skip Tracer, Unwind, Little Trouble Girl, Washing Machine.....

WM is one of my least favourites, it only has two tracks I really enjoy, so I've gone with The Eternal.

dosen´t feel i´ve heard the eternal enough yet, but it probably won´t be better than WM when i have, so WM gets my vote

i've not really had a chance to get to know the eternal yet :(

Ha, totally disagree. "The Diamond Sea" is my least favorite song on Washing Machine, but the album is one of my favorites by the band.

The Eternal is a retread album without a lot of replay value. So obviously WM ftw.

washing machine is awesome

..but my vote goes to The Eternal.. it's sooo powerful.

...

eternal rules so much.

washing machine is boring inthe middel,.

I like WM, but this is really tough. I don't really get a full perspective until I have had an album for at least a year and the Eternal is quite awesome. Gonna have to go with WM though. Hey ,hey where ya goin in such a rush?

Well, Washing Machine is my favourite SY album... so it was really a nobrainer

Washing Machine would win against most else.
