Murray Street sits in the lower third of the sonic youth discog for me. It is too same-y throughout, same tempos, same tones, same dare-I-say-it, soft-rock tendencies.
It is a good album, and has some great songs, but it is a downer for me, and sonic youth albums are NEVER downers for me.
Basically, I am talking about thurston's songs. I hope he got that troubador bullshit out his system.
I do not listen to it often, and then I do it cuz it is one of the few my girlfriend can handle, cuz it's PUSSY SOFT
