Sonic Youths Daydream Nation is a very frustrating and discouraging listen. There are some mindblowingly good songs like "Teenage Riot" "Erics Trip" and "Rain King" yet the album drags on for such a long time. Sonic Youth are at their best when they play direct, to the point rock songs and don't screw around with delay or lengthy blasts of noise; "The Sprawl" and "Hyperstation" never seem to come to an end and a lot of these tracks could have easily been shortened. While I think that Daydream Nation is a worthwhile listen because of its standout tracks the album is very draggy and to long for its own good.

Cause I have nothing else to do at the moment:



1. Candle

2. Teenage Riot

3. Rain King

4. Eric's Trip

5. Trilogy (The Wonder, Hyperstation, and Eliminator Jr.)

- - - - - I often listen to this totally separate from the rest of the album, as I usually end my listens at Rain King.

6. The Sprawl (I actually quite enjoy the noise section of this song)

7. 'Cross The Breeze

8. Hey Joni

9. Silver Rocket

10. Kissability

11. Total Trash (this song almost lives up to its name)

Get EVOL first. then get Bad Moon, which is a more inaccessible version of EVOL. Confusion Is Sex is really hard to digest, it took me a while to truly appreciate and it's still only at a 3.5, but if you like the noise rock aspects of SY then check that one out first.
