Which Sonic "Trilogy" cycle/era do you like best?
 

Inspired by the sonic phase thread. Someone on the old board loosely grouped SY's records into a chronological series of trilogies that I thought were pretty accurate, although I'm sure there are some arguments for other groupings. But here's how I see it, so which do you think is best? Right now, I myself actually can't decide.

a swell idea

i;ll have to think on it... as there's one favorite album in every part. BMR, evol, goo, WM, nurse... maybe goo.

Even though I don't like EVOL that much I had to go with EVOL/Sister/Daydream Nation.


Murray Street, SN were close behind, but I can't really say because I haven't heard Rather Ripped.

EVOL/Sister/Daydream Nation

Easily. No contest.

Early Eighties.

The right opinion.

evol sister daydream nation
these three are my absolute favorites

It was a toss-up, but I went with Washing Machine/ATL/NYCG&F

Laf. Goo/Dirty/Shit-album got 0 votes. Good call, everyone.

The "now" era. Not easily, but it's what I find myself listening to the most.

Yep.

cant decide

tough question but i took Sonic Youth/Confusion is Sex/Bad Moon Rising

Washing Machine!
A Thousand Leaves!
NYC Ghosts & Flowers!

was that me? Ive always found they grouped well in threes or pairs, just in terms of sound, design, theme etc. Ive gone for the latest 3 despite having not heard rather ripped yet.

i love it all man.

LIStened to all the old stuff so many times it has to be listed to on sellect ocations. So new stuff is new= good.

that´s too difficult
