They've made better and more interesting, but this is one that I've enjoyed somewhat. Three stars is what it gets because it hasn't blown my mind, but it's good to listen to when I'm writing and things like that. It's in a similar free jazz improv style to SYR 3, and i think i prefer the latter, but this is not a worthless purchase. it gets listened to when i'm in the mood.

Okay this is not really breaking new ground and it indeed has shades of SYR 3 but then that's not the point. What we have here is an elegant and beautiful sounding recording which almost shimmers with beauty. Certainly it is a "mood" piece and it does create that almost effortlessly. Well worth investigating.

This is another one in the SYR series of Sonic Youth releases. It is more experimental than their usual stuff and also more lo-fi. On teh one hand demanding and interestinga nd on the other hand sel-indulgent. If you like Sonic Youth this is nice because it represents quite a change from their more "mainstream" stuff. Basically there are three very long spacy jams that are influenced quite a lit by both krautrock and experimental music. However sometimes you simply think they cannot play at all...

Sonic Youth is the big part of history of the indie music today, with this new release (and other syr series), they are making the music history of the future.

Sonic Youth fans are a fickel bunch. Many get it and more than not, many others simply do not get it.
