Lee Ranaldo and Thurston were both playing professional level guitar when they came to Houston for Sonic Nurse. I mean, knowing what to hit and when without ambiguity, they were dead on proffesional. As far as the new Ripped album goes, there are some very strong songs. You could take the strongest songs from Ripped and Sonic Nurse and make a perfect album, representative of what Sonic Youth is today. To me at least, every Sonic Youth album gets better over time. I have found Ripped to be the same way. Im more impressed after every listen.
