I've tried getting into this but I haven't had any luck. Everyone makes me want to try again though.

Captain Civic, try Evol and Sonic Nurse instead; it's no good dwelling on this album.

"I revisited Daydream Nation the other day after enduring seven months or so without listening to the album, and I was astonished by how fresh and modern it sounded. “Teenage Riot”---still Sonic Youth’s best song---sounded weirdly recent, as did “Candle", as did (mostly) every other song and album in the rest of the band’s canon."


lmao this sentence.


no offense

Not bad, didn't grab me quite like their last 3 albums did though.

if you think Teenage Riot is SY best song, you probably don't get SY. So why did you get to write the
review?
DN is not even a real SY album

Pretty good, but amongst their recent albums, I thought the last two were better.

Well, according to my ratings, SY have no albums below a 3.5 over a 30 year career qualifying them for greatest band of all time status

jet set and nyc ghosts are the two weak links for me.. otherwise, yes a long career that never dipped below a 3.5
