noisereductions · 04.10.2009, 07:06 AM

just curious...

joe11121 · 04.10.2009, 10:19 AM

Studio albums, mostly.

Jeremy · 04.10.2009, 10:20 AM

I personally really can't get into much of any SYR release, so I voted for their straight up studio albums.

hey Jeremy. Welcome aboard. The SYR's are great, but if yr not "used to them" they can take some time to warm up to. You may just come around.

noisereductions · 04.10.2009, 10:25 AM

nobody picked "live recordings" yet, so I'm guessing Stu hasn't voted yet?

I plan on really exhausting all the studio albums before I move on to the SYRs and B-Sides, and I just don't see that happening for a LONG time.

By 'Live Recordings' do you mean boots, mainly? I love all the live SY I have heard but it is all official or 'semi-official'. What are the best boots? I would love to hear a live recording from the NYC G&F era - preferrably when the songs were still 'numbered' and were instrumental. WOW!! NYC G&F is my fave LP at the moment. It's dreamy

ATM the studio stuff, but i do listen to 'all of the above' on the reg.

Death & the Maiden · 04.10.2009, 08:18 PM

Studio albums. I don't think I have anything else of theirs.

I used to collect boots hardcore. I have at least 100 of them. But nowadays, the only boots I actually even think about are the official ones (Blastic, Continental, Venlo, Walls, etc)

Thanks man, I really appreciate. I've been a lurker for a couple months now but the admin always had administration disabled, until recently it seems. But thanks regardless.

I'm only familiar with their song samples on Amazon.com, but I've been into those for at least 10 years now.

lechaoscestmoi · 04.11.2009, 04:06 AM

what are the 'official live recordings'? I have hold that tiger but would definatly love to hear some from their later period especialy the atl/nycgaf period

at the moment i'm listening to syr's alot, but also daydream so i'm a bit of both

Theremin · 04.11.2009, 04:57 AM

Studio Albums. The SYR's aren't something I can casually listen to at any time of the day. Usually they sound more 'interesting' than brilliant, really.

barnaclelapse · 04.11.2009, 06:58 AM

Studio albums...then live stuff. I have to be in a odd mood for the weird stuff.

I can never listen to the live stuff, I don't have any of the official releases. And I'm not a fan of most bootlegs, because lots have shitty quality.

you're wrong, you don't know nothing about live recordings.
