this has brightened my opinion on rather ripped

Haha! That's brilliant!

that's cool
made by tape strips and scanned

jim's kinda funny "I am so outta here"

Haha The photo with Jim is hilarious!
"I'm so outta here"

Lindsay Lohan, 19, is a big fan...

Oh Hell Yeh!

Hahhaha. This is awesome.

That Is Class. Love The Fanzine Cut And Paste (literally Not Pc Like) Style To It. Better Than The Generic Lyric Sheet I Got With The Japanese Rr

I loves it.

that's nice.

it's got a sonic death fanzine style aesthetic which definitely makes me drool

Thanks Thurston!

greatness.

i don't know what to think about jessica simpson's appearance

That's a nice thing to do. I like the photograph on the 'Turquoise Boy' page.

i like.

Beautifully done! :)

Wow....I'm surprised to see Robert Plant and Jimmy Page from Led Zeppelin included in these photos.....Haha....I'm amazed !!!!! :)

Pretty neat.

who is that dude.. he looks familiar............

That's Jimmy Page of led Zeppelin sometime around late '69 or '70....and in the previous picture, it's Robert Plant, also of Zep....

oooh ok, im was trying to figure out why you said there was both of em.. thinking you meant the one picture.

well if that ain't the swellest thing i've read all day.

is that lindsey lohan?

yes ma'm!

gross.

I dig it.

in Reena I thought it was :

A lotta' whores sittin' ....

Not

A white horse sittin'

Jessica Simpson. Ha ha.....I just noticed that one.

I am so outta here.

I got a paper copy of that along with my Rather Ripped promo poster, when I bought Psychic <3 <3 <3's on vinyl.

thurston and sy have literally the best lyric art i've ever known.
i love it to no end :0 :0

is anyone else kinda freaked about the "quitting showbiz?" clip on the first page?

It's really really cool!

Now, if only he would've put this in with the cd or lp, then people probably would be more inclined to buy the album!

Well now I am. Sheesh.

ha ha, sorry man.

first of all thank you thurston, thank you thurston, thank you thurston and mmm, thank you thurston.
what the fuck is up with the black and white though? kinko's has cheap color machines. think of this next to bad moon rising.
i was not freaked out by the quitting show biz part. but i was freaked out by thr postpartum depression again! part becuz my dad's ma had that and now i'm worried that my sister-in-law will get it.
but thanks sonic youth for extending your love into the internet zone!

i love the goofy little picture of himself he put on that page.

from the sonic store?! man i would like to get my hands on a semiofficial copy of this lyric book!
