That reviewer didn't research that well it all. I know Pitchfork is scorned but their reviewer wrote a nice write-up.
The album sounds great too! |

The album is INCREDIBLE.
The Pitchfork review is hilariously rubbish. They almost imply Thurston is too old to be making this kind of music. If a band of 20 year olds made this record it'd get a 9.5.

Frank o hara is very reminiscent of Ono Soul.

I have. Except for his lyrics on Confusion, most of BMR, ATL, NYCG&F, Rather Ripped and The Eternal, I know all of his Sonic Youth songs by heart. As far as his solo releases, I know most of Psychic Hearts except Tranquilizer and Female Cop. And I know all of Trees except for Fri/End, and all of Demolished Thoughts. |

I barely pay any attention to lyrics period. That's probably why I love T's songs so much.... |

This reminds me quite a bit of Psychic Hearts because it is so sparse

I've found that while I don't actively listen for his lyrics, when I do pick some up by chance (as on Unmade Bed, beautiful song) I appreciate them, which is coming from someone who really can't be fucked listening to words. I've found that his lyrics from Washing Machine to Sonic Nurse are exponentially better than anywhere else in the SY discography, and the words on Demolished Thoughts are certainly more beautifully poetic and heartfelt than anything else he's done. having said that, I'm really not expecting shit from CLM. I'd assumed that it was just his bullshit wannabe beat poet crap.
what is the consensus on this? I'm afraid to listen as it really reeks of a midlife-crisis kind of record. it just seems ridiculous to have a 50+ year old man making hardcore punk songs. the vibe I got from the singles was a beefed-up Psychic Hearts, which is my least favourite solo album of his. |

Just came back from the show. There's something cool about going to see your favorite musician in the world, and as you walk into the venue, he's sitting down right in front of you eating dinner.
The show was good, but I'm not yet sure how I feel about the CLM songs overall. A few of them were very good, though. Short show, too. Maybe an hour? Only encore was "Staring Statues." Thurston's banter and storytelling were particularly funny tonight. Very good vibe, overall. I also found it funny that Thurston was wearing a CLM t-shirt. And Talk Normal was an excellent opening act.

I agree. I enjoy the CLM material. The two new songs he played were kind of short and stupid. They were called "No Go" and "Sunday Stage." There was another song on the set list after "Staring Statues." It was "Pretty Bad" and they didn't play it. The show was too short. Even if they had bothered to play "Pretty Bad," it still would have been too short. I thought it was cute that he was wearing a CLM tee. Overall the show for me was kind of just okay. In the beginning there were several minutes of technical difficulties with his tuning pedal, which was kind of annoying. I liked the solo show he did on February 2nd, 2012 much more than this one. Probably because the material he played then was better. |

I actually got a kick out of that, and Thurston's reaction to it. He sort of apologized to the audience, but didn't seem too fazed by it.
