Winner's Blues alone as the opening track makes this an epic album for me. I definitely do not see this album as a transitional album. If so, then every album is. How else to you get from EJSTANS to ATL without having Washing Machine? That doesn't mean that Washing Machine is a transitional album.... I'm surprised to hear that this album sucks or is boring to some. I couldn't say that for any Sonic Youth album. Man, my favorite song at the moment is Quest for the Cup. For me lately, nothing can beat listening to this song on full volume and just jumping up and down, acting a fool.
