Sonic Youth - Rather Ripped

year 2006
* Alternative/Rock

review: This album is brilliant! I'd compare my introduction to Sonic Youth to what I wanted my introduction to Radiohead to be like. I started with Radiohead when I was 9 and it wasn't ever exciting like it should have been. Oh, to be virgin to Radiohead again! But with Sonic Youth, I've only barely listened to Sonic Nurse and Daydream Nation, so listening to Rather Ripped has been the best thing of the year for me. It kills Destroyer, Islands, anything else that came out and I doubt that anything will be able to top it. For a first timer, this album is amazing, so to knock it for not matching their previous super trio is ridiculous.
