Ditto'd.

What is this "Billboard Chart" that you speak of?

pbradley · 06.17.2009, 08:09 PM

I hope it climbs.

How do I say this?

I think it's cool for them. But doesn't impress me, nor does it make me think the album less cool.

(I'm cooler than the whole lot of ya!)

I think this is more telling than anything the difference in promotion between Matador and DGC for the band. To me, it was fairly obvious that Matador did alot more for promoting this album than DGC did for SY's last few albums, and I think it is a factor in reflecting this chart position though more so than ever in this day and age it doesn't have that much meaning.

Ha! I personally try to block out how trendy Sonic Youth is in the hipster circles that constantly surround me (I'm from New York City with friends in Williamsburg...) But you know what? At least having ties to some good SMART music is in style. Could be worse....

Get the F*** out!!! That's impressive BUT, well deserved, Eternal is a great album from start to finish. I'm starting to have a little faith in all humanity again!

This is great!! And great album too, best stuff they have put out in a long time IMO, Yippie!
