maybe they inittialy planned to put it on there, and decided to take it off (id guess to encourage people to buy dirty delux if they want the song)...but it doesnt matter. i dont see the point in the "whys" here.


I wanted to know if I got a flawed copy or maybe an import has more tracks....and then The Bedroom that's supposed to have added lyrics...

What's wrong with wanting to be informed....it's got alot more substance than so much of the crap/filler that pollutes this forum....I'm meticulous with my collection and knowledge is not a bad thing....questioning is always encouraged in a learning environment....

I understand they could have done what you suggest....but I'd like to know definately......gotta problem with that ?

and ya know, google would probally work wonders as to figuring out wether or not theres an import version with a different track listing, instead of wating all day for someone to respond.

nope, i dont "have a problem with that", i just think its a little wierd, and lazy.


I've done searches and haven't found any info on what had been posted here...about The Bedroom or Is it my Body. And I figured with the hardcore SY fans here someone might be able to shed some light on it. Like how'd 'they' get 'their' info.....Inquiring minds like to know.

I DO have a Colin Newman cd from '88 called 'It Seems' that lists 11 tracks and my cd only has 10...so it's not like my scenario hasn't happened to me....I've been collection music since my first bought LP in 1968...so I'm not new to wondering about things like this.....just so you'll know. I've had other abberations and oddities peculiar to my acquisitions...

i recomend checking some online japanese/euro record storees and seeing what their copies of destroyed room look like.

that would be a goiod wy to answer yr question maybe.


Will do...and I have no quarrel with you. Sorry if I came off arrogantly...

i reckon they must have decided to drop it from the album in the last moments. it's no longer listed in the official tracklist on his very site either:
http://www.sonicyouthmedia.com/alt-m...troyedpop.html

i think it's actually a good decision to leave it off since it doesn't really fit in with the rest of the stuff on there anyway.

edit: on the news page it says that "doctor's rrders (t vox)" and "is it my body?" will be bonus tracks on the vinyl edition.
"the bedroom" with lyrics was never supposed to be on this... that song, "the destroyed room", is just where the title comes from. it's on the maxi-single of youth against fascism and also on dirty deluxe.

Yesspurs.....I hear more and more with each listen. I like that in music....the subtleties. :cool:

stadtgorilla 01.01.2007 02:23 AM

well, i got it as a x-mas gift, and it hasn't is it my body on it. i live in germany.
i also think it wouldn't fit into this wonderful selection of rather dreamy tracks. i love this record.

val-holla-ing 01.01.2007 04:08 AM

leave "goo" out of this!

Moshe 01.01.2007 02:14 PM

Actually I like the Destroyed Room much better than Rather Ripped. They compiled it very well. The albums flows very good from one track to another.

JohnEsmoke 01.01.2007 02:43 PM

I bought this album a few days ago and it's wonderfull... It seems like it is a following of SYR 1. A lot of instrumental and a lot of impro like "Fire engine.." "Fauxhemians" or "beautifull plateau". And also "Loop Cat" a great moment of Jim action ! They choose to focus on the last days era and it's a good choice ! nostalgia really sucks !

James Blonde wonders why Diamond Sea is said to be oldest song at the compilation while there's also Razor Blade?

dazedcola 01.03.2007 12:37 AM

Granted it wouldn't exactly "flow" with the rest of the album, but i would love to have seen "my arena" on here.Thats my favorite Sy b-side and i feel it gets no respect. "pass me a joint, joint joint"

Inhuman 01.03.2007 12:58 AM

Fire Engine Dream's one of my new SY favorites. I absoluely love this b-sides album. I wasn't expecting much at first, but now after hearing it 3 or 4 times, I think it's even better than some of the regular SY LP's.

EDIT: 3,000 posts :)

nicfit 01.03.2007 05:59 AM

yes, it truly exceeds my expectations. I'm a happy guy.

lalie 01.03.2007 09:14 AM

Shame on me I haven't listened to it yet!
I'm going to remedy that.

im sure the diamond sea was written first though...

razor blade was a last minute sorta thing.

James Blonde wonders if Diamond Sea is about Kim's pregnancy.

_slavo_ 01.03.2007 12:17 PM

a-w-e-s-o-m-e !!!

EVOLghost 10.01.2009 09:57 PM
