What next?
 
Having heard The Eternal, I'm wondering what SY album I should pick up next. The only other two I even know of are Daydream Nation and Dirty, haha! I'm looking for something a little heavier than The Eternal, but is still accessible.

Dirty if you want accessible, Daydream if you want amazing, Bad Moon Rising if you want to wonder how the same band (basically) made The Eternal

I guess I'll go for Dirty, then. Thanks!

Sonic Death.

Enter The Wu-Tang

Thurston's rhymes on "Bring Da Ruckus" bring the house down and Wharton Tiers is the master of the samples and beats!

Sister is great but not heavier than The Eternal (depends how you mean heavy though). I'd say Dirty for heavy guitars and accessibility, but many will disagree i'm sure. Definitely get Daydream Nation though.

I know Steve only has one verse on the whole album but it has to be one of the best in the group's history. I mean, what a sick fucker.

And Lee is like roll that shit, light that shit, smoke it.

Danny 07.26.2009 08:00 PM

"Why ain't you got my shit when I let you hold it?"

Haha I love Kim

You should check out Sonic Nurse. Not exactly "heavier" but a logical progression from where you are to hopefully going further back next.

greedrex 07.26.2009 11:51 PM

Yeah, Nurse, Dirty and Goo.

Sister don't have heavy sound but guitar riffs are quite heavy. Goo also has heavy guitar riffs and Dirty of course but it' already said in here.

The drumming from Stereo Sanctity are heavier than 85% of hardcore punk.

Leetdude 07.27.2009 01:50 AM

Dirty is a good choice. Some great songs on that record, and a wide variety of styles.

silverfreepress (sdasher) 07.27.2009 01:01 PM

I think the Sister LP works great as a post The Eternal experience. The drums sound awesome and if you've seen some shows this summer you've already been sprayed with a dose of live Sister. It even has some shared vocals if that's what turned on the listener from the new joint. Sister is gold.

freak side - Bad Moon Rising or Sonic Death
pop side - EJSTNS or Dirty

i have been listening to the eternal over and over again
I love it

al shabbray 07.27.2009 04:07 PM

DDN

its definately one of their more accessible ones, without being one of the straighter ones.
with a lil bit of luck it will open up your mind for the strange sides too, and you will discover a whole new world of music.
give it a try, even if this wont happen its still one of the greatest pieces of music ever made.

same for me, its like falling in love again. honeymooning for the second time with the long loved wife.

samuel 07.27.2009 05:58 PM

You might as well go with Rather Ripped next and work your way to the EP. I think that would be neat to start at a band's newest release and slowly dig through the years.

I'm not the greatest Rather Ripped fan, but after hearing The Eternal I think I understand it better. Give it a shot.
