Name one Sonic Youth song you think people should give a deep listen to again.

Lee Is Free. Come back to it and really listen.

Secret Girl.
Eeriness as it gets

nicfit · 09.19.2006, 05:33 AM

karen koltrane.amazing.

nicfit · 09.19.2006, 05:47 AM

rain king is another underrated song.

A Thousand Threads · 09.19.2006, 05:48 AM

What about
"Come and Smash me said the boy with the magic penis"
That song is fantastic

jean-nicolas · 09.19.2006, 06:07 AM

Karen Koltrane, Anagrama and tremens.

10/10 for Lee Is Free Top 40 Squeeze... it's one of my all time favourite sound pieces.

I would urge people to listen to Contre Le Sexisme for the same reasons... Kim's voice is used as an instrument too.

badgercorn · 09.19.2006, 01:15 PM

I agree with every single one of those. I'd also add Snare,Girl

wish they had done more songs like this, with the dual vocals.
If I only knew where I last left the CD, I would listen to it right now

gets too much condemnation, it is really a great eerie song

fluxequalsrad · 09.19.2006, 03:42 PM

Peace Attack for sure.

'Cross the Breeze, or Inhuman. Cross the Breeze until you realize it is thee greatest song and Inhuman until you learn it's actually a pop song (along with CIS, because that also is a pop record).

el duderino · 09.19.2006, 04:10 PM

J.C.

The best example of structured noise in their career IMO. Throughout the whole song the guitars seem to be teetering on the edge of unorganised chaos, but its only near the end when kim's vocals stop that they actually fall off the edge. Its also one of the only songs by anyone thats made me actually cry just due to its sheer beauty (and i'm not an emo!)

Danny Himself · 09.19.2006, 04:31 PM

Hmm. 'Sweet Shine'.

lunberg · 09.19.2006, 04:39 PM

Peace Attack - great drummin and jammin
Dude ranch Nurse - one of kim's greatest songs, may sound dull at first but there's a lot of great intricate guitar work on it
Free city rhymes - one of the song that makes you doubt if that muthafuckin Brent diCredenzo (that arrogant guy from pitchfork) gave a listen before bashing the record...

Always had a soft spot for this tune.

I'm Insane (the song).

Rob Instigator · 09.19.2006, 05:08 PM

cross the breeze is indeed just fucking fantabulicious song.

I think we should all go back and re-listen to

MOTE

It is the greatest lee song, the most yin yang split of 4 minutes of song and 4 minutes of skronk, the most beautiful spacious skronk around. I love lee's skronk
