Yeah definitely. In particular 'Little Trouble Girl'. Nothing symbolises that kinda nostalgic 60's suburbia like Phil Spector songs, and that song was obviously meant to be a subversive take on that. Someone aptly described it as "Mock Phil Spector". I think all the greatest SY albums stir up a lot of mental imagery when you listen to them, and this album does that in the most brilliant way. I think its very Sonic Youth to take something like a washing machine and turn it into such a ponient symbol.
