I got a deluxe record of it, and I've always liked the album, but fuck it is so overrated..

take away Teen Age Riot and it would be on the same level as Sister

Sister has Schizophrenia, Catholic Block and Cotton Crown.
DN has Teenage Riot, Silver Rocket, The Sprawl, Cross the Breeze, Eric's Trip, Hey Joni, Candle, Trilogy etc.
It's a fucking blast and you're all idiots.

i'm >>70740415
prefer bmr to ddn, honestly not a big fan of sonic youth in general though so take it with a pinch of salt.
>>70740507
Sister has Schizophrenia, (I Got A) Catholic Block, Beauty Lies in the Eye, Stereo Sanctity, Pipeline/Kill Time, Tuff Gnarl, Pacific Coast Highway, Hot Wire My Heart, Kotton Krown, and White Kross actually so
>>70740405
>one sentence
Hardly a rant, anon
>>70740557
yeah but i meant the songs that aren't padded-out experiments and and self-consciously trashy filler garbage
>>70740581
yet you included Trilogy(????)
>>70740575
It is a classic though, I can't be mad
>>70740637
Yes because it's the greatest song of all time, obviously.
>>70740405
I hope whoever produced this album never found work again
Fucking ruined
>>70740507
You are forgetting total trash
God tier song
The most overrated album imo
Its a real fun album, but yeah it's overrated
The only song I don't like off it though is Z) eliminator jr. Just can't stand it
>>70741940
>>70741947
overrated? It is an essential noise rock album
overrated is pearl jam or nirvana
wow /mu/ is full of kids
>>70740405
Que pendejo estas
>>70742045
Its really the only Sonic youth album people listen too but sister is better
>>70742157
It is a terrific album. EVOL, Sister, and some songs from Goo are also terrific
>>70742178
Also dirty.
Sonic youths got a pretty great discography
>>70742178
Bad Moon Rising as well
>>70740405
>but fuck it is so overrated
why do people here think this is a valid criticism? you've essentially said nothing. what was the point of this post?
it's pretty good but i don't get it either, it's my 4th or maybe 3rd favourite sonic youth
>>70740405
That's true, I don't get why the fuck EVOL and Sister are less acclaimed than this. Both better albums.
>wow lots of people love this album ima make a thread about that calling it overrated
>>70740405
I respectfully disagree. DDN is one of my favorite pieces of music, ever. I love the way it goes from a standard, riff-based noisy punk album to absolutely dissonant chaos and then back again flawlessly (see: Silver Rocket, Candle, etc.). There really is nothing like it. And then you have tracks like The Sprawl and Hyperstation that build and release tension with intricately layered string arrangements that come and go like waves on the shore.
Sister, BMR, Washing Machine, and A Thousand Leaves (underrated as fuck) are also very impressive, but they lack the compositional and emotive genius that is Daydream Nation.
