something new on the main page?
 

i dunno... is there something different about the main page?

something else is waiting in the wings for an appearance very, very soon...
later tonight, most likely.

....New Mix Tape!!!!

hey! people! get off of khchris's jock and get on the fucking main page.

sweet! thanks chabib.

badass.

Thank you kind sir.

sweet!
thanks!

i'm listening to reena right now, so i'm full of expectation what's in vol.5. who's dj? i think i've red in some thread that steve is choosing tracks. is that true? or is it whole band (morelikely)?

now...cherry's blues

thanks!

that's a picture of me when i saw this thread
i'm sorry that it's so big. but i just had to post it

thank you!

fuxin rite!

too bad its such a let down, no one will listen........

all of the backwards s/t? you are so kind.

blah...

I expected more than just what they are releasing this year, most of those songs are on their myspace too. The backward songs are cool but I wish there was more interesting stuff...

that was my first time listening to do you believe in rapture. dear god, what a let down.

when i click the tape it appears the mixtape 4, not 5 !!! :confused: :(

keep trying!

problem solved :D

instead of releasing new albums, maybe SY should just release their entire catalog played backwards.

You keep me coming home again.....

There is just something about the way Kim that sings "home" on Reena that gives me the willies in the best possible way imaginable.

I seriously hope the other songs on Rather Ripped are rather better than these three.

thanks!

i never noticed that the wheels on the inside of the tape turn just like the real thing. that's neat.

Also some new pix on the mainpage. Love the one of Thurtson with the tape....

I'll check this out immediately

very nice! i had already heard 2 of the songs off RR from SY's myspace but Do you Believe in rapture is awesome as well. Can't wait for june 13th!

this mix tape is great, i hadent heard anything from Rather Ripped before this, the songs from it on the mixtape sound great!, can't wait for the album to come out.

Allow me to help, Diesel - In the UK you can get the single from:
Boomkat
Rough Trade
Cargo

these three i would say are fairly representative of the album... yeah, it sucks... but hey, the new 7" is rocking... that's some consolation!

everyone'll get a chance to form their own conclusions about that on this here site in VERY short order...

like NOW.... hiding somewhere in a link on the main page is rather ripped in its entirety. this obfuscation will soon be corrected, but if yr so inclined and have some time to kill, go find and stream the tracks.

I don't see TOO much of a similarity between Nurse and RR now that I heard a few of the tracks off RR. It seems like pop a la max though

thanks for streaming the whole thing... i'll give it a chance

ok, done. that was a major disappointment . . . this is the first album in sy history that sounds like the previous one. part of the joy of sy was that confusion is sex sounded nothing like bad moon rising sounded nothing like evol sounded nothing like sister sounded nothing like ddn . . . etc. not so rr.

oh, and do you believe in rapture and or are not worthy of being sy songs.

--edit-- forgot to thank chabib. how bloody rude.

! man i'm not sure if i wanna listen to the whole record. I'm just sampling a few of the songs, not listening to the whole thing....it's very tempting though

now i've heard reena, incinerate, and do you believe in rapture, sleepin around, jams run free, and rats.

I can do without the first four. Very Nurse sounding. Again so far a kim and lee song are the best. In my opinion this is usually the case.

Chris, and the band so... you really rule.

I'm not gonna listen the whole thing because I don't want to hear it before June 13th but it's really so good. I was expecting you'll do that... and you did.

Sonic Youth rock.
Chris Habib rule

theres a new picture being used on the home page too.

and to everyone who was so cock-sure that the dismay with the leak thing was all about "the recording industry," eat a fucking dick, jerks...
