I don't know if there's a lot of SY fans here, but I'm wondering which album you prefer

I only have the two, but I marginally prefer Dirty to Daydream Nation.

Daydream Nation. I listened to that album non-stop for a complete summer of riding. I had it recorded on side A while the Beatie Boys Ill-Communication on the other. A great summer of listening pleasure.

I used to like Sonic Youth a lot, but now I don't really care for them all that much, though I do listen to Murry Street pretty often, which I'd have to say is probably my favorite. Obviously either Daydream Nation or Dirty would be the classic album to go with, but I don't really care for that sound, though Daydream Nation has some good songs on it.

Dirty; Evol; Goo; Sonic Nurse; Bad Moon Rising; Sister; Washing Machine; Daydream Nation (not as big a fan of this one as most, it seems); Confusion Is Sex...

In that order.

Sister. Then Washing Machine. Then Goo.
Daydream Nation is overated. The trilogy is nothing special, and there are a couple of songs in there that don't go nowhere.
'Cross the breeze' is fantastic, though.

I'm with Velvety. I used to be a pretty big Sonic Youth fan, collecting bootleg CDs and all, but I never got into DDN. I even have it on both CD and vinyl and never listen to it.

I've lost interest in the band lately. Even though Murray Street and Sonic Nurse are pretty good SY albums I don't listen to them

They've actually made very few albums that are good (or even bearable (sic)) the whole way through

Best: Sister, Goo, A Thousand Leaves (Lee and Thurston tracks only), Daydream Nation, Experimental Jet Set Trash and No Star, Evol

I never thought albums like Murray Street or Sonic Nurse would get so much votes. I'm amazed.
I'm amazed too because there's not a lot of votes for Daydream Nation and Evol that are the ones I prefer with Sister and Experimental...
