Sonic Youth Album Cup 2009 Round One: Confusion is Sex v Dirty
 

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

Confusion Is Sex. Dirty has great songs but as a whole it doesn't impress me as much. Confusion is Sex is badass.

I guess my opinion is the same as yours.. Dirty has got great songs, and I really like the production..it's powerful and it rocks.. but Confusion Is Sex is something with some sort of ambience in it, a better album overall..

Confucious is sexual

this was the hardest choice for me, but Confusion is just a monolith

and a ques to demonrail, for future rounds if CIS wins, do you consider the reissue version with Kill yr Idols tacked on or the original 9 track LP?, this could be a question that sways some, i voted here based on the 9 tracks alone which made it that much harder, the addition of the EP tracks just improves it's votes

where does the judge stand?

I suppose it's fairer to stick with just the original, minus Kill yr Idols.

This is an easy one. CIS

Dirty. Confusion is too noisy.

Dirty. It's got a lot of my favorites on it.

CIS, amazing.

Dirty, good but not their best.

If a God-like monolithic document of what noisy electric guitar can achieve in the poetic realms of art can somehow be "too" noisy, sure...

Dirty is a decent alternative rock album. Confusion is the sound of bells ringing in the collective heads of American society.

Confusion Is Sex

Confusion is Sex.

Confusion. One of my favourites, whereas Dirty is one of my least favourites.

CIS is ten times better, but I´m giving my vote to Dirty for nostalgic reasons

Confusion Is Next And Next After That Is The Truth!

Confusion for sure, though if Dirty had been up against Goo, jet set, or washing machine i'd have voted Dirty in a heartbeat

confusion is their best album.
dirty is probably their worst.

so...

confusion. my favourite sy album.

if confusion loses it will be a crime
