Quote:
Love and sex do not necessarily go together. In fact, they usually are two separate things. This is my opinion: We are taught to view sex in a manner which is completely removed from the sphere of the erotic. The erotic is a realm of passion, desire and chaos. It is never plastic or picture perfect. There is a lot of power in the erotic, which is probably why it is so vilified. We are taught to fear and loathe it. I'm gonna quote Audre Lorde, cuz articulates it beatifically: "It [the erotic] has been made into the confused, the trivial, the psychotic, and plasticized sensation. For this reason, we have turned away from the exploration and consideration of the erotic as a source of power and information, confusing it with the pornographic. But pornography is a direct denial of the power of the erotic, for it represents the suppression of true feeling. Pornography emphasizes sensation without feeling. The erotic is a measure between our sense of self and the chaos of our strongest feelings. It is an internal sense of satisfaction to which, once we have experienced it, we know we can aspire. For having experienced the fullness of this depth of feeling and recognizing its power, in honor and self-respect we can require no less of ourselves." She continues that this corruption of the erotic into the pornographic has been misnamed by men and used against woman. That all being said, when you truly love somebody, sex can be one of the most fulfilling experiences. It can really take you somewhere else, spiritually speaking. However, just because you love somebody doesn't mean you should be fucking them. And visa vera. As long as you are particiating in sex that is safe and consentual.

Sleepin Around might be the worst Sonic Youth song ever.
Rather Ripped is their worst album, imo, but it does have it's highlights. Jams Run Free, Pink Steam, Incinerate. Reena is pretty good too, but I could do without the rest. |

incinerate and do you believe in rapture are two of their best songs ever - whatever it is, pop or what - and jams run free is really good too, and pink steam is good when its played live.
So - since its only 3- 4 songs, i dont reallye would say its a good album, but its better than the eternal. I guess - 3 songs from rather ripped and 3 songs from the eternal on one disc - that would have been a very good EP. |

Rather Ripped is their weakest LP imo, and those lyrics do get on my tits. I still give the damn thing a spin once in a while mind. And I enjoy it!
I like how RR has a different sleeve for the LP. That's like way cool... |

hell yeah. and it sounds way better on vinyl. i never really listened to the album on the cd version. then i bought it in vinyl because of the different cover and was actually blown away because it sounded so crisp.

I don't know, man! Are you my mom?? And to whomever said they hated Lights Out: Sleepin Around and Lights Out are both great instrumentals. The difference is Lights Out has some pretty cool lyrics. Plus, Kim's entrance in the chorus gives me chills! I would have to say the worst song on Rather Ripped is The Neutral... boring, heard-it-before progressions and boring lyrics. The only songs I really listen to off this album are Jams Run Free, Lights Out, Pink Steam, and Or. Do You Believe in Rapture? is great until 1:50 where that section "makes me want to puke" and the rest are pretty hard to comment on because they're so blah. |

Agree wholeheartedly, as much as I love almost everything they do, Sleeping Around is a horrible horrible song.

I was going to say the same thing. I remember watching that video and thinking the song was awesome. I was so looking forward to it being on RR. What made the demo even cooler was how it started playing again at the vey end. I even recorded that song as an mp3 and put it on my ipod to listen to. |

I always had this feeling that Coco wrote the lyrics for Sleepin Around...they're so...elementary.
I'll take it to Lights Out though...'there's not a hell of a lot you can do'...uuuhhhgggg. |
