Which Sonic Youth Cover is Best?

static-harmony · 11.05.2006, 04:59 PM

I have to say Sister's album is the best.

nicfit · 11.05.2006, 05:10 PM

CIS and NY are the best ones.
not to be mistaken for C.S.I. NY.

goo, sister, confusion is sex

Danny Himself · 11.05.2006, 06:20 PM

Dirty or Daydream Nation.

I like the back cover for Sonic Nurse, though.

Hip Priest · 11.05.2006, 06:27 PM

The photograph on the cover of 'Bad Moon Rising is beautiful and iconic:

'Sister' is a close second.

Danny Himself · 11.05.2006, 06:28 PM

Ah! How could I forget? It's hanging on the wall right in front of me.

Good call, Seb.

Now that I think of it, the back cover of the DV69 EP is pretty good too. Love that truck.

Thank you. For me, that LP has the nicest design throughout:

the one with the candle on it.

Wow, no one's mentioned EVOL yet (surprising!)

But maybe a better question is which cover art best captures the sound of the record?

HaydenAsche · 11.06.2006, 12:02 AM

Evol > all

youthoftomorrow · 11.06.2006, 12:05 AM

make this a poll already.

Bad Moon Rising.

fluxequalsrad · 11.06.2006, 01:03 AM

Murray Street...SOo cool

noisemachine · 11.06.2006, 01:30 AM

This is tough. I think they are all pretty cool and all of them are really different. What is interesting is that all of the art on the covers are pretty representative of what the music on the album is like. Hard to explain, but it is.

youthoftomorrow · 11.06.2006, 02:48 AM

the real question here is whether or not anyone is going to say EJSTNS.
