Anti-Orgasm is better than all of Rather Ripped combined. fuck.

Calming the Snake sounds better live, on first listen.

I'm kind of thinking that too from what I've heard so far. It just rocks so fucking hard.

Though it's sort of different from my favorites. Personally I like Evol and Sister a lot for the haunting quality of the music, Murray Street for the jamminess, and Daydream Nation for the poppiness. The Eternal I like for the straight up rocking, combined with the other SY trademarks. The beginning of Antenna is very much like the Cross the Breeze ending, and the jam in it is very much like something out of Murray Street.

Some of the textures and moods given by the songs are totally unique to the album.

Massage the History... i am just so blown away, I had a feeling some elements Trees at the Academy would turn up, just a sheering emotional stream


Anti-Orgasm is just just rawk, i love the thumping underbelly driving like a diesel engine,

Woah. Better than A Thousand Leaves? That's my fav SY album. If you like it as much as I do then this record will be awesome.

I'm on Calming the Snake. I think the album version's better than the live version. I can hear the layers much clearer, and they make the song better.

mil_pl 04.28.2009 12:35 PM

anti-orgasm is actually an orgasm.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 04.28.2009 12:35 PM

Has Sonic Youth ever rocked this hard before?

duderanchnurse 04.28.2009 12:35 PM

nope

duderanchnurse 04.28.2009 12:36 PM

just to mention that streaming is shitty as expected
cant wait cd/lp

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 04.28.2009 12:37 PM

Kim's Vocals on Poison Arrow :D

duderanchnurse 04.28.2009 12:38 PM

i'm on calming the snake too.
weakest song so far

marleypumpkin 04.28.2009 12:38 PM

I'm on Antenna now, I can agree w/ the notion that this could be better than ATL. Anti-Orgasm is just the perfect title for that part of the album. Not even 2 songs through, & it just could the most critical part of the record.

This promises not to disappoint any SY fan.

I have my computer hooked up to a really nice stereo, so it sounds glorious to me.
