Rather Ripped — is it a good title? - Page 2

samuel · 05.07.2006, 07:54 AM

I love the word "rather" for some reason.
I like it.

strictlycommercial · 05.07.2006, 10:18 AM

I like it, it is what it is.
Do You Belive in Rapture? sounds very grand & judging by cover art/description (still haven't heard it!) I think they were trying to avoid that.
Again, at least it's not Sonic Life.

lucyrulesok · 05.07.2006, 10:58 AM

heh, i dont think its the greatest album title ever, but there are FAR worse

charlotte church callewd her album tissues and issues. im not even kidding

i dont think sy are the best at naming albums, but it doesnt really matter at all. the point is that the music is good! (or at least i think it is)

atsonicpark · 05.07.2006, 05:05 PM

you feel rather ripped off after stealing the record before it came out? how ironic.

I agree

Sheriff Rhys Chatham · 05.07.2006, 07:29 PM

iTS ALRIGHT.

atsonicpark · 05.08.2006, 01:34 AM

Actually, it's not ironic considering I preordered it from scatbabes and downloaded it at the same time.

Ah, but look at its initials!

"rather ripped" is open for interpretation..
that's always good for a sonic youth album..

i'm still waiting for the new album.. i refuse to download it.. will have more once i listen to it...

umjammer atomsk · 05.08.2006, 08:17 AM

I didn't really like the title at all when i first found out. I thought that this album might mark the end of Sonic Youth's greatness. Well, I'm sure I overreacted and now I don't mind the title too much. Whatever, it sounds a bit simple. It's just what the album's called. I've come across far worse.

yea dude no one is really impressed with yr little "shock value" thing you always try to pull off. grow up.

_slavo_ · 05.09.2006, 03:44 AM

is it good...? or is it bad?
anyone cares?

it's all about the music, isn;t it?

terminal pharmacy · 05.09.2006, 05:23 AM

the title could be called shit sandwich as far as i am concerned. as long as the music ist filled with goodness it doesn't matter.

Hannah · 05.09.2006, 02:28 PM

Not if the album is going to be overpriced. And I don't think the title matters, as long as the contents good. It sounds ok. Rather Ripped. Whats wrong with that? It's catchy.

Rob Instigator · 05.09.2006, 03:05 PM

SONIC LIFE!!!!!

that should have been the name of the new album!!!

Cotton Crown · 05.09.2006, 03:11 PM

I rather tossed my cookies at the discovery of SY's new lp's title. Yet, i have come around and decided not too care.

atsonicpark · 05.13.2006, 05:26 PM

ozZuB-ginK, what the hell are you talking about? Idiot.

They need to get ripped, and think about the title.
