Sonic Youth Gossip - what are you listening to?

it's an absolutely fantastic record, i can't see how someone would choose their earlier work over their later work although i like all of their albums...as cliched as it may sound, dark side is my favourite followed closely by the wall.

It is quite good. But I think its strength comes not so much from the songwriting and performances as from the production. The songs themselves are fairly nothing but the production, the "sound" of those songs, is amazing.

people who think pf were better musicians than songwriters and prefer them expressing themselves instrumentally than (like gmku said) special sound effects-wise. people who like music to be more out there.

and i'm not talking about syd barrett.
