I'd be happy if someone after listening will write an objective opinion. Not fan's praise.
Anyway here's Pitchofork's review, with which I kinda agree: http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/...and-the-tides/ |
The thing about that website is that if, for instance, "Xtina" was the only Lee track on a new Sonic Youth album, they'd say it was the stand-out and give the album an 8.2. Pitchfork is a yeast infection. But I have to say I'm surprised they aren't praising the album.
As for Lee vs. Thurston, I think Thurston's album would have been better if it had been more electric, but as of now I prefer Tide.
