SYR2 is exactly what you need to fill a spare half hour.

SYR3 beats it, but is it an EP at almost an hour? Whatever, it has J O'R on it, and that's 'the best' for me.

atsonicpark · 09.24.2006, 07:02 PM

I almost always prefer a band's ep's to their lp's..

nature scene · 09.24.2006, 08:19 PM

I've always thought of the first sonic youth album as an EP, but apparently it's not?

I like:
Prospect Hummer - Animal Collective
Green Cosmos - Deerhoof
SYR 1
Watery, Domestic - Pavement
