Sorry, it's just that when I have a really strong opinion I begin to think of it more as a fact.

Though if anyone ever told me that Chiastic Slide was a shit album, whoah boy, watch out.

gmku · 08.22.2008, 07:17 AM

Who's better? Sonic Youth or The Beatles?

08.22.2008, 07:18 AM

no prob
Chiastic Slide isnt a shit album it THE shit, love it. but havent listened to the new one (except for some myspace snippets)
wherw would you sort it in?

atsonicpark · 08.22.2008, 07:24 AM

I personally think Autechre have gotten better on every album to date.

Though my personal favorite is Draft 7.30.

ZEROpumpkins · 08.22.2008, 07:25 AM

Yeah I was listening to Draft 7.30 earlier this evening and it really is amazing, probably my second favourite one by them.

ZEROpumpkins · 08.22.2008, 07:26 AM

And Quaristice is relatively poor. I prefer it when Autechre are doing 10+ minute songs that evolve into something wonderful and amaze you every time you hear it. Quaristice is mainly short snippets of long jams they had.

Rob Instigator · 08.22.2008, 09:21 AM

and BTW, SONIC YOUTH is and will be and since 1987 has been the single most importanta nd favorite band in the life and meta-mind of Rob Instigator, and forever they shall remain.

I may go for streetches where UI listen to other stuff, and not SY, but they always remain firmly entrenched, right along with the beatles. there is no denying the pinnacle.

sonic youth for the awesome rock win.

confusion is sex blows every stupid fucking wanna be "hard" band out of the water, and it came out 20something years ago.

sonic YOUTH!

ARRRGGGHHH!!!!!!!

coming down!!
Sadie I love it
now now now
death valley 69!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

autrecherer will go the way of nitzer ebb, and every other slowly forgotten electronic act.

sonic youth will be played on the outskirts of the asteroid belt when humans reach there and make habitations.

no dilemma for me there... i'm not into the beatles at all, a day in the life is the only song of theirs i'd ever listen to.

regarding sy, i'll admit that a lot of their shit is awful, but at their peak (which i consider to be pretty much everything they've done since evol.. except for goo, ejst&ns and ofc rr) they're the best of all. in my opinion there is no other band that compares to them.

Rob Instigator · 08.22.2008, 11:09 AM

ain;t nothing gonna top coming down from a 10 hour LSD trip around 7:00am and running into a fneighbor in my dorm and asking if he ahd some mechanical music because I needed mechanical music and he played me 99% NOW TURN ON TUNE IN BREAK OUT THIS IS A GAME...and I sat and listened to the whole album
YOU CANNOT PETITION THE LORD WITH PRAYER! and I loved it and it made everything alllllllright and then I slept for 10 hours.
