5.0 out of 5 stars No lyrics..., September 11, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: From Here to Infinity (Audio CD)

I originally purchased this cd thinking it would be filled with Lee's poetry but it's completely instrumental. I originally thought I'd been ripped off and put this cd on the junk heap. It wasn't untill I listened to it again that I realized how beautiful it is. a must have for anyone that likes "surface noise".

3.0 out of 5 stars Get the lock-groove vinyl..., April 6, 2003

It should be known that this was originally released on the great SST label as a locked-groove vinyl lp. Each of these 'tracks' on the CD, is supposed to be heard as a locked-groove (infinitely repeating). This is more of a dronework, than anything else. To fully understand these sounds, it is reccomend that they are listened to loud and on vinyl, so that the drone can manifest, and the additional sounds from the physical structure of the vinyl can enhance the experience. According to Lee on the back of the album cover, "...I hope you will drop the diamond in a groove and let it ride awhile." As a CD; I can only give it 3 stars, but as vinyl, I give it 5 stars. Don't buy the CD, find the vinyl on Ebay or from outofprintmusic.com.

1.0 out of 5 stars GOD AWFUL, January 23, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: From Here to Infinity (Audio CD)

1st: i love sonic youth, i have for years. 2nd: i love instrumental music.

now, the "album." no melody, no actual music, for crying out loud. nothing but guitar feedback. to give this album 5 stars is re-gad-damned-diculous. puhleeze.
