Silver Session EP
 

How rare is it? How hard to find?

I am aware it is an essential part of the youth canon . . or so it seems listening to you guys . . .

so should i make a hasty bid for that one on ebay uk or what?

or is that foolish .. . . . letting all you lot know about it?

nah. fuck it. you've all got it anyway. . . . . . . ?

i got it! i got a copy of it off an american boardie from here though. I'd buy it, its pretty good, and pretty hard to find.

alright then . . . so . . . . . how much would you pay? . . . . . or better still, . . . . . if you wanna tell me . . . how much did you pay????? . . . . or even better than that .. . how much dyou think it's worth?????

oh he gave it to me for free, but i'd pay anything under £20

this the one yr talking about

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Sonic-youth-Si...QQcmdZViewItem

its says its "used" hmmmmm.

yeah that's the girl. i'm not worried about the used bit. he's talking about the case having folded corners. . . . i'm a bit skint at the mo so i'll prob go up to about ten . . . we'll see. i do want it tho.

now get back to your homework? :D

har har har

this is the worst part of their discography... in my opinion... it may be a cover of Lou Reed's metal music machine.

its fucking hard to find in the uk, especially if you dont live in london.

where can i find it then helpful?

from the american amazon site
if you want to pay $34.97

http://www.amazon.com/Silver-Session...0798778&sr=8-1

i got it for £8 from amazon marketplace UK.

i don't.

incidentally, 'melbourne direct' vinyl on ebay uk too! for £70!

nice. they're going for £30-40 on there now.

I bought one for $9.00 a few monthes ago. Just be patient if you really want it. Don't pay more than $15.00.....

I like in the linear how Thurston describes another band as playing 'funky metal overdrive'....

just wanted to say

this is easily sonic youth's best album

that's a bold statement my friend.

It's also wrong.

i got it for about NZ$30 at my local, it's cool - but I dont find my self listening to it that much to be honest. Ive probably only listened to it about 2 or 3 times. I listen to the SYR's a lot more.

It has more of a utiltarian function for me : good to study to, good for cancelling out the neighbours crappy music and good for blocking out those murderous voices inside yr head ;)

nah

silver sessions is amazing

it's not my favorite but it is their best

haha how do you know its their best if it's not your favourite?

i cant believe i still havent heard this im such a fucking poser!!!!!!

very cool story behind it too. why in the hell am i just now looking into this?! *hangs head*

I got it, bought it in a FNAC for about 16€ ($16), it was probably there since it was out... It's really great, I love it, really hypnotic and cold

You have a distorted perception about the Euro-USD exchange rate, man! ;)

Yeah you're right, in fact it's aroung $21,5

silver session is an incredible album. there is no bull in the heather or kool thing on it but its their most interesting listen. a cover of lou reeds metal machine music.... thats laughable..... whomever said hasnt seen the whole picture. read the liner notes before you listen to it.........
i love the silversession and am not afraid to admit it,

You must spread some layers of beautiful feedback around before giving it to PAULYBEE2656 again.

you took the words out of my mouth.. it's their most interesting listen.. it's.. i can't explain it.. it's godly.. it's otherworldly.. it's just.. the purest example of beauty i've ever heard.

yeah...

mark prindle gave metal machine a 1 and gave silver sessions a... 4? or 5? and i emailed him and asked him why, since his reviews for the two were pretty similiar ("It's just feedback"). and he told me that silver sessions was interesting to listen to whereas metal machine isn't. interesting. but...

i have always found metal machine to be kinda boring. silver sessions is just... heavenly. i think on a level of distorted purity and heavenly bliss, they will never make a better album. perfect.

"silver panties"

The same for me. Same price, same opinion, good noise. Not so difficult to find it.
If you can find it in France, you can find it everywhere...

you guys are talking so seriously about something that is a joke... I'm gonna listen to it another time ! what a shame I didn't understand that it was a sonic masterpiece !!

We're not kidding hee, little boy !!!!:mad: :mad: :mad:
It's a very serious forum, isn't it ? To convince you :

Ok ?
(;) )

i got mine on half.com a while back for pretty damn cheap. check GEMM.com and ebay and it's bound to pop up.

and it's definitely worth it.

Ok... I can die in peace...

this is the first thread where i can agree with atsonicpark:D

likewie adam, likewise....

same here, man. one and only online order that never came. put me back into the same opinion about safe online shopping. fucking robbers.

I love Silversessions its a good one to kick back to
