And plain stupid.

Well, in that case, I was saying, people are agreeing with me -- even it's privately and they're not as vocal about it.

I was also saying, "if I'm such a worthless person why do people rep me?"

etc.

I don't care about rep so much. I just know that most people aren't going to defend me or agree with me in the context of threads, for whatever reason, but they do it privately... so I have to keep speaking for the silent majority, in this case. And the only way to do that is to mention the otherwise pointless reputation system.

picking on new people is weak, also jokes are supposed to be funny

atsonicpark · 04.30.2009, 06:00 PM

Didn't pick on the new poster. Picked on his thread. Also, he was cool about it and has proven himself to be cool in the process. All in all, the whole thing turned out very cool, if I do say so.

It's a fucking internet site dedicated to a band, for fuck's sake.

Regardless of what my "research" has proven or disproved, I think we can all agree that if they really did tape over the Sister mastertapes they picked thier worst album to do so... I will take Jet set over 90% of albums out there but no doubt it is the weakest Sonic Youth album (even admitted by the band!) To be honest with you too, yesterday was my first visit to the message board (but Ive been to other bands message boards so I know how that works), and I just happen to be blown away by the fact that within ten minutes I found something out that I never knew and was able to hear it for myself. Sister is by far my favorite SY album and to know it was wiped for Jet set is alittle saddening, but it is what it is...

atsonicpark · 04.30.2009, 06:53 PM

the band said jet set is their weakest album?

That's something I didn't know!

They basically refer to it as the album they threw together in haste with very little band interaction. Notice there are not any Lee contributions (due to being upset about leaving "Genetic" off Dirty) and they knew that Dirty "failed" to meet mass success so they kind of temporarily lost intrest in music. It may not be accurate wording but essentially this is what happened.

atsonicpark · 04.30.2009, 07:12 PM

I always thought dirty was their most successful album though (hence why it was given the reissue treatment first). I guess someone somewhere thought it'd repeat nevermind's success though... I can see that being disappointing.

Toilet & Bowels · 04.30.2009, 07:19 PM

it doesn't prove they recorded over the sister master tapes, for all we know they could have played sister in to the mixing desk from a walkman and just recorded/mixed it at a really low level.

That's interesting. I always figured Dirty was the one they were least impressed with. In the Silver Rockets, Kool Things doc, Kim makes it sound like they were eager to move away from the kind of experiment of straight rock that was Dirty. Then again, Jet Set doesn't get mentioned AT ALL in that documentary so who knows. It certainly seems to get the least amount of attention. Do ANY songs from that album ever get played lived?

atsonicpark · 04.30.2009, 07:21 PM

probably just bull.

I know steve was unhappy about the drum samples mixed in with his drums for dirty.

Count Mecha · 04.30.2009, 07:24 PM

Oh really? I thought that was Sister he hated the drums on. I know I do.

atsonicpark · 04.30.2009, 07:25 PM

He might hate the drums on lots of records. dunno. I think I read the info about him hatin' the dirty drums over on the mustang site.

Toilet & Bowels · 04.30.2009, 07:27 PM

what do they say in that book that came out last year about ejstns? not the stevie chick one, the one that was supposed to be good.

that's something like what we did --- we still have the master tapes to Sister - just being silly- oh boy, the internet.

hmm, maybe the recorded jet-set in a haste, but I have a thurston-quote in mind, that he thought it to be a real cool record - because of its raw-edge-style production and its artwork
