Favorite Song on Least favorite SY Album?
 
I've never been a devout follower of Rather Ripped but I ABSOLUTELY ADORE TURQUOISE BOY. I love that song entirely. It's amazing.

Does anybody else feel this way? perhaps about another SY album?

SKINK - on EJST&NS

Don't make me have to listen to RR so I can answer this question

You Rather Ripped haters, that album kicks ass, especially live! Reena, Incerate, Jams Run Free, Rats, Turqoise Boy.. where can you go wrong?

Also. This thread made me realize how much I don't actually hate Experimental Jet Set Trash No Star as much as I used to think I did. When I was going through tracks to find my favorite, I realized I liked a few there, and it was hard to pick one, even though I really never thought I liked that album until I had to play Survivor with it and felt bad about letting songs like Androgenous Mind or Bone or Winners Blues or Skink or Bull in the Heather? I guess I do like this album. I will have to go with my gut on this one and pick my mostly favorite from this album, "Sweet Shine"

Brave Men Run or Death Valley 69... Bad Moon Rising disappointed me :/

Really? I can understand Brave Men Run, much like Youth Against Fascism the name is more substantive than the song, but Death Valley 69 is a masterpiece like the Trilogy or the Diamond Sea.

You´re joking? Golden Blue is on Nurse. And I agree about that Golden Blue is one of the greatest SY songs, I love it immediately when I heard it first time from the radio.

Doctor´s Orders from EJSTANS is my favourite of that album! And I really like more Thurston vocal-version,I think it should be on the album instead of Kim`s. I started also love this album, when I realised this is SY-most-rock-album! That also helped they change direction in Washing Machine to the more "sonic"-direction.

I really dig this thread! Now I'm going to pick my favorite song from my second least favorite album

Brother James (Kill Yr Idols)

my favorite track on my third least favorite album?

Rain on Tin (and this was hard, I like Empty Page and Disconnection Notice too!)

It's hard to choose least favorite album of SY. Maybe Experimental Jet Set, Trash & No Star, so the best song would be Doctor's Orders.

SonicBebs 06.27.2013 12:34 AM

I think at the moment i'd say Starfield Road
Or Jams Run Free

Its really not that hard considering that EJSTNS is seemingly a unanimous choice

SonicBebs 06.27.2013 05:25 AM

but its like asking who your Least Favourite Child is
we all have one (all parents do anyway) but its not a nice thing to admit it!

i love EJSTNS and i love RR its just they're a bit difficult to love sometimes
same for Goo

you can't put your finger on why, but there's just something about them

To me it´s very easy to love them all:) . Of course I like some more than the other.
