edit: referring to Toilet's post...fuck i should quote more often--Kim called it "a really weird record" and the author intimated that several band members could not recall many of its songs.

And none of this ever would have ever happened if the thread starter
had used the site search engine and thought, "Oh, it's been done."

[atsonicpark]

Haha. Man, I've replied to at least 100 threads with "use the search" but it doesn't work anymore. People love repeating themselves.

I thought everyone knew about my genius already?

I doubt very much they recorded over the masters. It's too great a coincidence that a key lyric is heard between each song.

And yes, I've posted this before.

It's mind-boggling that people on this board don't just do whatever you tell them to!

how much time do you guys dedicate to reading inane gossip about yourselves?

Sorry Steve, but I'm pretty sure I recall this rumor being started by the band. Possibly Thurston's sense of humor coming out in an interview?

SHUT UP ALREADY!

THANK YOU!! My sentiments EXACTLY. I've been a member since the old board and can even recall when this website was just a black screen that said Sonic Youth.com coming soon. Somebody wants to make a post about SY related info, FRICKIN' LET THEM without this "im the shit cuz I have a zillion posts" guy giving them unecessary hassle about it! And try this news flash on for size: maybe there are people out there that were not aware of the sister/jet set thing, (such as myself) and this is ACTUAL NEWS! I wouldn't have known to search for the topic, because I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW IT EXISTED, so this guy has (can you freaking beleive it) given me new and relevant information!!! Concrete Abutments thank you for saying what's been on my mind because this isn't the first time I've come here looking for straight up good music conversation and get nothing but message board prickery from the freakin' orange sash wearing school safety patrol.

Seacrest out

They liked the way Jet set was more produced thier way and they really worked hard on Dirty but didn't like the process. The whole thing with Jet set is they knew the music was weak and were pretty spent after all the hard work on dirty. They took a more simplistic approach to Jet set but even down to the art they knew it wasn't going to be pleasing. They almost did this as a test for geffen that they really would retain control over thier sound, art, music material... It just was a pretty weak effort. Almost destined to fail. They really didn't even tour or try hard to promote it. (some of that being because Kim was pregnant) Thus, they decided with Washing machine they would rededicate themselves to the songs, patch things up with Lee, and record the record they always wanted to record. Thats why really Washing machine is a breath of fresh air in the middle of the corporate 90s. I really don't know how washing machine stands up in the eyes of the average SY fan, but it probably is my second favorite album next to (1) Sister and (3) Dirty.

Hell yes.

Steve, I hope you're not reading through all the Eternal-related posts flooding the board, ha ha.
Has the "noisejob!" shirt I and a friend gave you in Bolzano ended up in a bonefire to heat up cold winter nights ?
ha ha.
Another great morning on SYG making myself look like an ass.

Finally. Why couldn't you guys have just said that in any of the other million threads about this topic and ended it?
