Great minds.....hehehe
Anyways Rather Ripped was ok, and actually better than a lot of other stuff released but ''ok'' for a Sonic Youth album is still dissappointing to me. I suppose what I'm getting at is that I was expecting something completely different and the ''ok''ness of the album stems from the fact that it is completely different from the Youth's stand-point. To me rather ripped sounds like the album you would have expected them to make in place of NYC Ghosts&Flowers, you know the album after all their gear had been ripped off.
And tell me about DJ Shadow...What the hell man! I understand he wanted to stretch out into something different but ''KrUnK''?
Ditto your thoughts on the Lips album, save for maybe three or four songs its not good.
