Oh my fuck I adore this song. Kim's "singing" is pure genius. On the latter verses, she injects silence, decay into what we were presented with on the first verses. You expect her to follow the formula, and she fucks with us, and it's wonderful. Inbetween said verses, beautiful dronage mingles with percussive passages....like, um, History. IMHO this is the greatest Sonic Youth song ever.

OK I'm drunk. But talk about this song some more, please.

(Oh and I got SYR8 today....is there a dedicated thread? 57mins of the SNY O'Rourke Quintet with the Merz and Gustaffson makes my heart go all pumpety pump.)
