My feelings exactly. I've always "kind of liked" RR, it's just that "kind of like" is a big let down where Sonic Youth is concerned. I've felt that way about 3-4 albums and SYR 5, otherwise it's always been LOVE. |

rather ripped is.....
a decent LP that i like i listen to it relativeley often and i think it is sort of fresh-sounding still it is well inferior to any other SY LP this we all agree on this point of view was brought to you by Greedrex |

Rather Ripped is cool, crystal clean guitars. I agree that 'Sleepin' Around' and 'Lights Out' are terrible, but its definitely has its merits.

sometimes i like the 'clean crisp' guitar sound, sometimes it sounds fresh.
sometimes i think its the begining of the end |

Well you shouldn't, it isn't Sonic Youth. However, it's the only SYR that isn't them, so it's worth noting. |

RR is my least favorite Sonic Youth album. That said, there's a couple songs on there that I can dig. But mostly I avoid this album like the plague.

Aside from Thurston hopping around when they play Incinerate live and "Or", this album is just shy of meh.

I like Rather Ripped. It took me a year to get into it because it wasn't what I expected from them, but it's a good album. But I agree, Lights Out is terrible.

I listened to it only about 15 times whatsoever. And have no intention to do that again. No good.

there's a decent bass line in one section of one song for about one nanosecond.
