I really like it but agree it doesnt fit with the album. However I'm one of those people that really digs variety from bands and like the shift in mood - that being said there's a lot familor there too and some really nice kind of freeform layed back guitar.
In fact the only thing that bugs me about Washing Machine is the chorus from No Queen Blues - I dont give a fuck blah blah blah... its something i would write and instantly burn. |

The whole album is fanatastic. Probably my favourite Sonic album. Maybe it was the time.
As for Little Trouble Girl....the song is just 'realized'. It almost get to where it wants to go...but doesn't realize it. Very foreboding. IMO, an idea not completed. Impressionistic... |

I don't get why there's so much hate for Junkie's Promise and Panty Lies...now if somebody said they don't like No Queen Blues, that I could understand.

I agree. I guess it all depends on what people think makes Sonic Youth important. To me, the group didn't make enough statements on this album. I think that exploratory, atmospheric - though not necessarily noisy - music is what they do so well. |

Panty Lies - One of my favorites off of Washing Machine (pretty much my fav SY album for playing start to end.) Its so horridly dischordant but it creates this wicked eerie atmosphere and the part thats like 'ee-ee-ee-ee' is soooo good. Its a creepy summer night kind of song. ____ Junkies Promise- to me seems like the hit song off of washing machine. When i first started listening to this album i didn't think any song had any hook whatsoever except this song. Guitars sound thoroughly fucked and the jam out at the end is cool.

Little Trouble Girl : well, why not ? But a little bit boring. Too calm for me.
Washing Mashine : Good album, with great Lee' songs ( Saucer Like is the first SY song I've heard), good tunes, nice guitars... and a fucking orgasmic finale !!!! |
