noisereductions · 09.12.2008, 07:19 AM

pbradley's got a point.

Although it seems from most of This Is Not Here's replies that although we're 4 pages deep into this thread, he's not eally that open to anyone's suggestions.

Ya gotta have some of Lee's songs, no? Skip Tracer, Eric's Trip, Mote?

I guess I'm the only person here who doesn't like Expressway?

noisereductions · 09.12.2008, 08:11 AM

You are. Expressway rules.

But Lee songs yr right about.... especially if this dude wants "pop". I mean, "Genetic" for cryin' out loud!

noisereductions · 09.12.2008, 08:12 AM

When I get home I'm gonna dig up the SONIC LOVE mix that I made for my wife back in the day and post the tracklist. It made her appreciate 'em (and she's not into noise) and yet I made sure to feature some variety.

1 Teenage Riot
2 Bull In the Heather
3 Sunday
4 Disappearer
5 The Sprawl
6 (I Got a) Catholic Block
7 Washing Machine
8 Unmade Bed
9 What a Waste
10 I Don't Want to Push It
11 Death Valley 69
12 Starpower
13 Hoarfrost
14 Shadow of a Doubt
15 Renegade Princess
16 Expressway to Yr Skull

Derek · 09.12.2008, 10:46 AM

Why did I always think noisereductions was 16? Hah, unless he got married at 16 and back in the day was when he was a preteen.

My head hurts, I thought a 12 year old was 16 years old today.

noisereductions · 09.12.2008, 10:58 AM

I'm 27.

noisereductions · 09.12.2008, 11:04 AM

You were probably thinking of atsonicpark. He's only 16 (inches tall).

What about Purr,thats pretty popy in my eyes.

diskaholic-anonymous · 09.12.2008, 12:45 PM

once i went to the record store and i listened some kid ask to the seller if he knew the band who plays "sugar kane", then the seller hesitate for a moment, and said "i think it's sonic something...maybe... young??!! - jesus! i thought and laugh to my self - than i helped him and said to the kid - "you should listen first "Daydream Nation", "Evol" or maybe "Sister", one song it's not good enough for you learn about this great band" - i think it's a good start to meet sonic youth.

Sheriff Rhys Chatham · 09.12.2008, 12:57 PM

Sonic Young, haha.

greedrex · 09.12.2008, 04:04 PM

actually joking aside.. thats the best option.. its easily digestable sonic fodder for virgins to chew on... not bad at all, has a bit of everything and is fine!

added cdr with terrys carrot, silver session and master dik is of course a necessity!

mil_pl · 09.13.2008, 04:04 PM

That's All I Know (Right Now) is cover (?)

its a Dylan song which if they've covered it i'd fucking love to hear

NWRA · 09.13.2008, 05:44 PM

What about some more songs off EJST&NS such as Starfield Road or (particularly) Screaming Skull?

Macbeth is brilliant and it has a catchy riff and catchy keyboard bit... And being an instrumental it could break-up some of the repetitive parts of the compilation (when there are a few Dirty/Rathed Ripped songs in a row).

I think Washing Machine and Sympathy For The Strawberry are the most suitable long songs.
