Sonic Youth "A Thousand Leaves" (DGC) This 74 minute masterpiece of tonal transcendence marks a new Sonic Youth era as they showcase a progression in all directions - backwards as well as forwards, into pop as well as away from it. "The album represents a slow tracking of ideas" says Thurston Moore, "These are really the earthly recordings of SY." David Fricke of Rolling Stone has said, "This is guitar futurism that really does sound like the future." -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Subscribe to Megatunes News, our weekly Newsletter focusing on New Music and Music Information. mailto:static@megatunes.com with the word Subscribe in the subject area.

I might be interested in hearing this at some point, 'cos I liked the "Dirty" LP, but Steven Wells said this one was crap (albeit whilst acting like a prize twat during his "interview" with the band). Might be fun to see if he's wrong (or right?)... Any other opinions on this record? <Adam@roblang.demon.co.uk> =================================================== FIND OUT THE SHOCKING TRUTH BEHIND THE "TELETUBBIES": alien mutants that threatened to devour the earth!!! http://www.roblang.demon.co.uk/fangrok/gallery/Tubbies.html

On second thoughts, I've just actually *read* the above review of the album - omigawd! The pseud-zone strikes again!! Who wrote it, anyway? Sure, the album *might* be better than a blowjob - I don't know - but what a gushing arsehole!
