I think at first I gave it a 7, but now maybe lower. A few songs are very good but when I buy a sonic youth album I except them all to be strong not just the odd one or two. Reena is probably my favourite song. I just think they could have achieved more musically. Surely they are capable of more then what they put out. Someone said something about Thurston not trying to break musical boundaries or anything but I don't see why they shouldn't be trying to. Also, if this was the first sonic youth album I had listened to; I'm not sure whether I would have bothered to come back for more; although I did first listen to dirty, and I thought that was amazing; not so much now.
I think it is definitely thier weakest album out of the lot. It doesn't annoy me to listen to but it just isn't that interesting. Well ,that is what I think for now. 0 or 1 is a bit unfair in my opinion but everyone is entitled.
Evol: 10/10
Rather Ripped: doesn't even come close
