The weird thing is that it is a totally great record, it just is unspectacular because Sonic Youth has continually been so surprising and innovative.
This is the record I was hoping to get from them, and I can't wait to hear these songs live, though I hope they keep "Pattern Recognition" in their setlists.
"Turquoise Boy" is absolutely stunning, and I love the way the album closes as compared to how it opens.
