It's not the end of the world since SY and Jim parted ways. Although Rather Ripped wan't nearly as good as Murray Street or Sonic Nurse. Jim is really talented. Sonic Youth will continue and we will love them. But for now, SY has the great loveable Mark Ibold of Pavement-fame to work with!

true, that comparison was a low blow.
I like sonic nurse best, then rather ripped, then murray street.
sonic nurse (which was gonna be called sonic life) is a fucking amazing album
