Dirty versus Sister - Page 2

noisemachine · 05.16.2006, 08:08 PM

I like Sister more, but Dirty is a vastly underrated album. I dont understand why many SY fans don't like it. It has a great variety of sounds and noises while still being one of the most accessible SY albums, IMO. It was also the album that really got me into SY so it also has some sentimental album.

I bought Goo in 1990 and was really into it, then didn't listen to SY again until about four years later, when I heard Experimental Jet Set and thought it was great...Dirty was my third album, which I bought that year. I didn't start collecting the 80's stuff until the late 90's probably....I've always just bought a few SY releases here and there...but I have a lot that I've collected over the years.

Dirty reminds me of that year that I really got into SY and of that time in my life, and it's one of those albums that I can listen to again and again and the magic is still there...

Goodness these albums don't even compare!!! Damn right Sister is a better album by far. It supercedes alot of SY's work although, I don't find it better than Washing Mashine.

hahah dirty better?!? what a joke sister kicks it ass.

Sister doesn't do it for me anymore. A lot of it seems dispensible, whereas when I hear Dirty I think every track shines.

I actually like Dirty a lot better now than when it originally came out... I have always loved Orange Roll's, Angel's Spit, Creme Brulee, JC, Nic Fit and Teresa's Sound-World... but for me Sister is a far superior album.

I don't think it's cooler to like pre-Geffen songs since my fav SY record is Sonic Nurse.

BUT I prefer sister too because it's a real SY achievement, whereas Dirty is more a collection of songs that have nothing to do with each other and there's a huge load of crappy songs(by SY standards off course, the songs before Sugar Kane included are great but after...bleh). However I'd like SY to redo Sister (keep the tuning but clear out all the UNINTENDED noise ) : there's something 'dirty' in their sound that you don't hear that much in DDN or any of their subsequent record. The whole record is poorly produced IMO.

sister was recorded on vacuum tube equiptment, specifically FOR that "dirty" "grimy" sound you want them to be rid of

Rather Ripped is probably better than Dirty and Sister.

I don't think that's really true. I like plenty of the Geffen era SY stuff, including Dirty. I just happen to think Sister is a superior album.
