best sounding song on the album.

I like some other songs better, but there are definitley nice touches in many of them!
p.s. I'm still a bit bothered by the panning vocals in poison arrow :p

I want some Anti-Orgasm.
Though I think it will be either Sacred Trickster or What We Know (which is fine for me as well...)

deflinus 06.09.2009 04:04 PM

a LOUD version of Leaky Lifeboat is what i hope for

Although Id like more of a surprise it will probably be sacred trickster tonight. Id love to be proven wrong with a performance of antenna or anti-orgasm, THURSTON, ARE YOU LISTENING?

pantophobia 06.10.2009 06:36 PM

according to John Agnello who is in attendance, he twittered it was Sacred Trickster

automatic bzooty 06.10.2009 06:37 PM

aaaaaaaaaaargh, i love sacred trickster, but i wanna hear something else live.

joe11121 06.10.2009 08:06 PM

I'm excited to see this tonight!

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 06.10.2009 09:29 PM

show starts up in about an hour.

Alexander 06.10.2009 10:00 PM

Poison Arrow or Malibu Gas Station would be great

automatic bzooty 06.10.2009 10:49 PM

i forgot until i started watching conan. the musical guest is rancid on late night, and i was all, "rancid? boo-urns. i wish somebody good was on."

"... OH WAIT. LETTERMAN!"

I feel the same way. In some aspects I feel like Poison Arrow is their "strongest" track in years (oddly enough, perhaps in part due to some youtube video some guy from French Canada made (and everytime I hear that dischordant part of the song, I think of hot, dark-complexioned tree-trimmers swinging from branches of pollarded street trees)), but I don't think it's my "favorite" on the album ("Calming the Snake," "Leaky Lifeboat," etc. coming in as strong contenders). As far as the panning vocals, I felt kind of the same, but have decided to err on the side of "genious." As far as studio expertise that's pretty basic; but get stoned and imagine their faces moving back and forth like two large moons (on an exotic planet that has two moons [think the Dark Crystal] (and not in unison--more like a person's hands while they're doing the "Charleston")) over a sea of churning guitars, all the while taunting you with "Who? Who?? Who???" Like Whack-a-mole in your ears.

^^haha...what dude?

automatic bzooty 06.10.2009 11:33 PM

One Commercial Break Between Us And Soniks.

automatic bzooty 06.10.2009 11:34 PM

aw man, capslock filter. i was yelling.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 06.10.2009 11:35 PM

Sacred Trickster.


Damnit, Letterman already has his copy.

I feel like I'm going to be last person in the world to get a copy. Stupid Matador. :P

I won't have mine until next Wednesday, but I ordered from store.

Sonic Youth 37 06.10.2009 11:40 PM

Altogether a solid performance. I like the little effect two-footy thing Thurston does during the song.
