NYC Ghosts & Flowers
To all those who think it's pretentious, irritating, mediocre, meandering, or whatever else... you may be right on all counts, but it's even better for all of those reasons!
I'm not in a really proper position to make this call of "best album" because SY albums are best appreciated at the time of their publishing, and I'm only a newbie. Nurse made the most sense when experienced amidst the indie-rock world of the early 2000's. Dirty works best when considered as an adaptation to the grunge aesthetic. I really enjoy the earliest records, but it's still hard for me recognize how extraordinary they were back in the 80's. I was 5 years old then.
