Fuck this pussyfooting around!

Daydream Nation.

Do what you have to do. Ask no questions, have few conversations, just listen to Daydream Nation.

DISCLAIMER: However I am open to the suggestion that in the intervening 18 years since DDN was released SY have released many highly relevant and significant albums which may perhaps be a slightly prettier entry to their oeuvre. At the same time, DDN is a seminal classic, and I for one find myself inevitably judging their modern material in relation to DDN, at the same time appreciating their releases completely in their own right, in their own time, on their own merits.
