Battle of the EP's
 

What thinks you? And how come?

silver sessions, cause its a blast!!! and i like the concept of it pretty much

kali youg of course.

Silver Sessions is in my top 3 sonic youth releases, so definitely that.

atsonic, as a big Fall fan, whats yr take on 4 TUNNA BRIX?

Master-Dik just because of the "HEEEEEEE'SSSSS GOOOTTT A TICKET TO RIIIII-HHHHIIII-HIIIIDDDEEE"

Silver Session without a single blink of an eye.

1. silver session
2. candle

EP's not singles. I'm being strict on this mofo.

Master-Dik & TV Shit, I voted for MD though.

Notice no one voted for in the fishtank. I WONDER WHY

havent thought that the silver seassions would be such a sure shot

Same.

silver sessions

its tied for my second fave sy release (behind confusion, and tied with ddn).

it just rules. shows that when they want to be, sonic youth can be the best avant guitar noise band on the planet, just as muchj as the best noisey indie band on the planet (evol-all thier full lengths), and just as much as the best nihilist noise punk band on the planet (kill yr idols, confusion, tv shit, and to a lesser extent bad moon rising)

i love silver sessions

yeah i know Sir! , sorry, my vote goes to candle and silver sessions.

what about Sonic Youth EP?

I voted Master-Dik but that's the only one I own... :(

Master-dik was really just ok. I enjoy it when songs from it come up on my ipod, but I remember how I was so psyched to hear it,and when it finally came it was just kind of goof aroundswith two actual songs and I felt let down.

Even though SONIC YOUTH is clearly an EP, the band has always considered it their first album.

but its clearly an EP

I actually don't own any of these.

/shame

tv shit because i'm one of the few who appreciate it, sy and eye aping the gerogerigegege through a youth brigade "cover."

ED::holy shit!!! someone also voted for tv shit!!!

master-dik... how can you beat "shit is funky fresh"....?

But it's not an EP. It's an album.

What constitutes an EP? Length in minutes? There are some short albums out there. Some EP's are longer than LP's. Number of songs? Well there's some LP's with only 2 songs on em. So if the band says it's an LP, then we'll just have to trust them.

you should really give that Civil Disobedience record a try, they are the fucking best chaos punk band to come out of the nineties!

Silver Sessions with Master Dik a close second and 4 Tunna Brix a very close third.

IF i talk about ep's my favourite is Confusion is sex, but it´s not on this list

Under what possible definition is Confusion not an LP?

I voted 4 Tunna Brix because it's interesting hearing them play Fall songs...

It was definitely a stroke of genius at the time. Imagine they got a Peel session when that was the make or break thing to have in the UK and they showed up and played all Fall covers (including one from This Nation's Saving Grace the album that mocks Fall/SY comparisons on the liner notes!)
