So Can you hold out until June 9th?
 

With the exciting news of a new sonic youth album in detail now with a tracklisting the subsequent question immediately comes up. How many of you are going to be patient andwait until June 9th to hear the new album? What if a leak comes out before then, can you resist the urge to binge your ears on sonic delight? I remember when Rather Ripped came out I originally planned to wait for the album's release date but I broke 2 months before it was released ? A sonic youth fans would have to have nerves of cold steel to be able to abstain from new material form then when its so easily available.

I already know I can't wait for June 9th for the new songs. Im gonna pick the first sunny day of spring/summer to break it in. Im still going to pre-order the album on matador but I'm going to hear it before it gets to my door.

I always used to have to wait when there was only vinyl or cassette available and I had to go to a record store to buy it, and I don't see why I should change the habit of a lifetime.

I'm downloading this shit, burning it, listening to it once or twice, and never listening again and then calling it worst album of the year!

Just kidding.

I'll listen to it three times.

Just kidding.

I will download it and listen to it when it's available, yeah. I may end up buying it. We'll see what happens.

that sounds like you. Yeah. haha.

I'm gonna wait. I always do.

I have nerves of cold-fucking steel

I always wait.

I need it on vinyl, for the digital bits are ephemeral and transient and make me feel like I fucked a cheap whore instead of waiting for the luxury model.

I am sure I cant this time

i will most definitely listen to a couple of tracks but will wait for the buy early get late thingie to end up on my doorstep.

I'll download it. Assuming it gets released on wax, I'll buy it for sure. If Matador offers pre-orders for a vinyl copy, then I'll pre-order it. I've stopped buying music on CDs since I don't listen to CDs at all anymore, but still use my record player.

here's a picture of Rob Instigator listening to something fresh from his vinyl collection:

^^ i'mstill waiting for fresh pix of Rob's Ikea stacks filled with waxxy awesomeness.

I'd prefer to own a casette version of this.

cassettes are stil the most sexy music media ever. and the most unreliable...I see some parallels to women in there...

never thought about it like that, you have a point...

me too, I surprised myself while writing this

i will wait.

i will wait. i refused to listen to the new love is all before it came out, so i can wait for this.

I can't wait to do the Matador early buyer thing. But I won't wait until I get it, I'll probably download the leak whenever it hits.

No.
