no not at all.I think I've made it a point to mention a few times that I like the record. I'm just saying that people make it out to be the band's crowning achievement, which I don't think it is. I think they've recorded better albums and more interesting albums.

ohmigod how many times on this forum is the daydream nation debate needed?

the anti ddn crew will never change their minds and neither will the pro ddn crew (oh and before i get pounced on i mean pro/anti in the loosest way, merely to describe two sides of a clearly VERY COMPLEX AND IMPORTANT debate).

i think its interesting how much it divides people though. i mean we're all on here cause we're sonic youth fans. but we all argue about sonic youth all the fucking time. LOLZZ

Ddn Rulz Yall

RULZ


and Expressway to Yr skull is indeed the or one of the, greatest guitar songs ever

I also happen to respect and admire the Albini man, and his opinion holds much weight with me. he puts his money and his talent where his mouth is.

Nicest guy ever met at a show, next to steve shelley.

I think EVOL is better than Daydream Nation.

[DeadDiscoDildo]

Sister too...

[Rob Instigator]

we all have our faves.

Mine just happens to be DDN

you folks slay me. Thank God that I can barely tell the difference between music genre, let alone defining statements, absolutes etc. All I know is do I like it or don't I it's a simple as that. Sonic Youth as a band has continued to grow and change for over 30 years how can an album cut in year 7 define them is beyond me. The fact that they continue to change and tinker with there sound is what makes them the best. The Rolling Stones one of the best rock and roll bands of my times hasn't cut a significant album since 72's Exile on Main St. Thankfully I can't say the same about SY.

[Rob Instigator]

ahhh, but what album would you, a fan, choose to define The Stones?

we all pick different ones no?

[demonrail666]

I don't think there is an album that defines the stones. Maybe ones that define certain eras but not their entire history. Same with SY.

where's a good place to start with the rolling stones, the best 1st album to buy?

I like Sticky Fingers. I don't like a lot of Stones albums though.

[screamingskull]

i only have one song

Moonlight Mile

my parents were never stones fans, at all

[noisereductions]

know what's a great song? "Backstreet Girl." I think it's on FLOWERS. I heard Evan Dando cover it once live and it killed me.

Sticky fingers, closely followed by Beggars banquet.

Back to topic I like how screamingskull injects some life back into the board lately

[artsygrrl]

Most of my favorite songs remind me of a certain time in my life.

I've noticed that girls typically do inject the most life in this board. For example, Artsy consistently posts the most interesting threads imo.
