I'm loving this album more and more. Although I like 1KL, I have noticed myself listening to this album much more than 1KL when that came out.

I feel SY has had a Rebirth of some sort.

Best SY in probably a decade, I absolutely love what they did with this album. It's short, sweet, to the point, and more active.


I think that's why it's closer to GOO & DIRTY. There's only 1 song clocking over 6 minutes.

i love it

I have a hard time believing this is the best they've released in a decade. What about WM, murray street and nurse? three albums that deserve to be in the top 6 at least... From what I heard in the gigs in France, they could've used Jim especially in some parts where noone was singing,sometimes they seemed to jam around without really new ideas ( middle section of reena) but then again the tunes are so catchy that most songs are more than ok.

WM is over ten years old. RR is better than murray street and nurse.

Washing Machine came out in '95. I was referring to material from '96-2006. 1KL was ok, I thought that was a more "transition period" for SY, going into more longer format songs which I thought were ok, but not as great as the shorter, direct songs. NYG&F was IMO their worst album ever, Murray Street was just a step up from there with Sonic Nurse being the best album during the O'Rourke-era.

I'm always going to love Washing Machine more than Rather Ripped, but I think Rather Ripped has easily beat out any album during the O'Rourke era. Maybe Rather Ripped rivals 1KL right now? Just my opinion.

agree. maybe 1kl was more raw and imperfect though

alyasa 04.24.2006 11:44 AM

It's sounds so pop rock, it's like rock riffage and pop melodies. how do u not love it?

Inhuman 04.24.2006 11:55 AM

I like it. I know it will grow on me, since I've only listened to it twice. Now I'm going to wait.

AllHandsOnTheBigOne 04.24.2006 02:35 PM

It's catchy. I approve.

Massenvernichtungswaffen 04.24.2006 03:49 PM
