meee too. Nurse is still my fav whole album, although I do love some early moments. Nurse came at the perfect time for me to get back into the yooth again (and noise rock).

It seems you donīt understand what I have written or you just donīt want to understand what I have written. I think you havenīt been as active as I in this board, because you think here are no fans that think Sy has betrayed them. Just search old "rather Ripped" thread and you can read how much hate there is about that album. You can think am I serious listener or not, but I donīt want to listen music that is mediocre. But that doesnīt mean I listen only avantgarde. To me most important thing in music is that it gives me strong feelings and musicmaker has making it putting 100% from himself to it. And in my opinion SY has put 100% all of their records. Are you really forgetting SYR9 came 2011 (and itīs not SYR release from older material like some others, it is recorded in 2010)? I think itīs recorded in studio, so to me itīs also studio album. And when Itīs SY-record, to me itīs totally same is it official or not. After that has came at least Thurstonīs two solos, Leeīs Solo, Ono/Gordon/Moore-release and soon Glacial. To me SY is living band and no-one knows are there coming also some new SY-release sometime in the future. But really, if SY will split, I will not be here anymore. The whole point into my writing is that if you donīt like the newest SY material, why you have to complain about it now and then? I have been great Red Hot Chili Peppers-fan, but I donīt like their two last albums at all. I donīt have any interests to go their message board, but if I had, I wouldnīt go there now then keep on saying how lousy album Stadium Arcadium is. There really has been lots of comments "rather ripped is shit, I hate it" "the eternal is shit" etc. Also itīs not very long time when E. noisefield started thread where he wants to tell he donīt like Eternal. If you havenīt seen them, you really havenīt been active here. I donīt really believe also SY will ever make like for example Metallica, I mean try to do album what fans want to them (Death Magnetic=the worst Metallica album Iīve heard). |

i thought Murray Street was their best album since DDN.
Sonic Nurse was way better than The Eternal though, yes. |

Due to this thread I've been listening to Rather Ripped and rather loving it.
I can't wait.. to taste yr face!? whoa. Really though.. RR is noteworthy for SY trying to encapsulate a lot of their different sonics into smaller, pop-structured songs. I do prefer The Eternal for that larger (noise) rock sound.. I guess I never thought of it (Eternal) as a final album because T had joked about it being a play on a black metal title, and I just always interpreted it as that. |

Think RR would've been a great finishing album, some super-arch meta statement about avoiding cliche by writing conventional material, doing it damn well then disappearing into the ether with but a wry wink from Thurston to let us in on the joke. Also, the PROBLEM with The Eternal is that it sounds a bit like every other record but without the edge of the earlier stuff, the sprawl of the midperiod or the melodicism of the latter, and though I'm not normally toooo bothered about production values Protools-ing or whatever a band that rely so heavily on tone is a crime against humanity.

That's probably the album I've listened to least. It's never grabbed me in any way but, given its almost across the board love, I'm sort of curious to give it another go now. Have it on now. |
