Gonna redo this list, I think it was rushed Sympathy for the Strawberry The Diamond Sea Turquoise Boy Trilogy Hey Joni The Neutral Schizophrenia Radical Adults Lick Godhead Style 'Cross the Breeze Theresa's Sound-World Sunday, Female Mechanic, Pattern Recognition, Pink Steam, and The Sprawl are worth mentioning too |
Always love seeing these type of lists for such powerhouse bands where really they can go anywhere with how many killer songs they have.
I recently put together my favorite songs from Murray Street through Rather Ripped and made a "late greats" playlist that I feel would fit here: Side 1 1. Do You Believe in Rapture? 2. The Empty Page 3. Peace Attack Side 2 1. Reena 2. Stones 3. Rain on Tin Side 3 1. Pink Steam 2. Dripping Dream 3. Turquoise Boy Side 4 1. Incinerate 2. Disconnection Notice 3. Dude Ranch Nurse |
Doing this again now, a lot having happened since i last did this list:
The Diamond Sea Teenage Riot Becuz Karen Koltrane Mote I Love You Golden Blue Schizophrenia Expressway to Yr Skull Female Mechanic Now On Duty She's In A Bad Mood |

wish fulfillment
disappearer becuz no queen blues skip tracer the world looks red tuff gnarl white cross tom violence catholic block im not gonna try to order them. this game is stupid. they don't really have "best songs" some are soundscapes some are lyrically driven (some with NOISE) |
Six opening songs make my list: intro/Brave Men, Tom, Skitz, Becuz, Free City, Pattern.
But not Teenage. Pretty sick of that one. |
15 song shortlist
Turquoise Boy Nevermind Side2Side Hits of Sunshine (For Allen Ginsberg) Saucer-Like No Queen Blues Screaming Skull Androgynous Mind Drunken Butterfly Orange Rolls, Angel’s Spit On The Strip Chapel Hill Purr Disappearer Brother James |
More great openers: Burning Spear, (She´s in a) Bad Mood, Dirty Boots, 100%, Winner´s Blues, Contre Le Sexisme, Reena & Sacred Trickster. And yes, even Teenage Riot isn´t the greatest Sy-song, it really opens DDN in a great way, specially when there is that slow intro before the energy of the song explodes totally. And hell yes, even Empty Pages is good opener. So I think SY has always paid attention to which song they started albums.
