Review from Drowned In Sound. I like the SY/Beatles comparisons made here.

Are you in the US or Europe? All copies in North America should have download coupons. If you don't see it at first I'd check to see if it is stuck in the gatefold crease, that happens sometimes. If not then e-mail me at dave at matadordirect dot com and we can get you hooked up with a code. |

The thing about that website is that if, for instance, "Xtina" was the only Lee track on a new Sonic Youth album, they'd say it was the stand-out and give the album an 8.2. Pitchfork is a yeast infection. But I have to say I'm surprised they aren't praising the album. As for Lee vs. Thurston, I think Thurston's album would have been better if it had been more electric, but as of now I prefer Tide. |

Just got the demos from UK itunes - I was expecting solo versions, stripped down, just Lee and guitar but they are band versions, presumably with Lee on multi-tracked guitars and Steve on drums. Please tell me there is a way of getting the other demos as these are excellent!

I am liking it more with every listen, but there is no excuse for that "alone out in the middle of the world"/ "just some other girl"line. The rest is just great and sounds smazhing on vinyl. I can already tell it will define my summer.
But am I the only one who feels a little sad listening to it? Sometimes it's like the guitars are just crying out for Thurston. The character of the album is so reminiscent of SY. At least Demolished Thoughts maintained some sonic distance. Favorite tracks change every time through, but I think xtina as I knew her will I be the fan favorite in general. |

I am very glad that we got the vinyl. But gosh, I'm still kinda back and forth about the album itself.
