This album is important because it inspired bands to do what they do, but way better :)
>>131508814>what they do, but way betterLike who? Pavement?
>>131509343I'm gonna guess it's that fuckin Paella Slint album
>>131508814name a few examples smoothbrain
>>131508814Oh yeah? Name 3 then
>>131508814Sonic Youth suuucks
>>131508814why is sy considered influential when in fact he belonged to a bunch of 80's groups (dino jr, black flag, replacements...) that as a whole were influential not not only them ie sy?
>>131508814Not to mention that Surfer rosa alone was more influential than most of those.
>>131508814sonic youth has gotta be one of the most overrated bands of all timei understand that they were a big precursor and influence to a lot of other indie rock/noise rock bands that followed in the 90s but this shit does not hold up today, it just doesn't
What band does sonic youths sound better? I feel like the wrens had moments that remind me of youth, maybe Polvo? BTW EVOL is best SY sound>>131509343Pavement is my favorite band but they dont do what Sonic youth do remotely
>>131513691US Maple, Unwound. And in the 80s you had a bunch of post-punk/hardcore bands with dissonant sounds even if they didn't use weird tunings like SY, it's as if they were trying to copy the sound of Wire's 154 without the weird studio tricks.>EVOL is best SY soundI'd go for Bad moon rising, but Evol was when they started going for a poppier sound, not as much as sister though
>>131508814The first 15 seconds of this album gives the impression that the album is going to rule. Then they follow it up with the next 45 minutes of SHIT.
>>131508814SY is one of the very few cases where the band's albums are all over /mu/charts but 99% of anons claim to hate them
>>131513865It is pretty much like that. Teen Age Riot is a great song.
Every single Sonic Youth album before daydream nation is way better
