ereygers86 What an excellent listen to an early version of one of my favorite SY tracks. Favorite track: Expressway To Yr Skull (early version).

Custom Made In 1968 I love SY so much! I still feel like they are my band. You know, that one band that you are the only person you know who has heard of them and who listens to them. They always take me away from my present reality. Soothing noise. The acoustic version of "Star Power" is absolutely phenomenal; "Basement Contender" is heaven; "Machine" is pure SY; "Catholic Block" is so rough, it's comforting. To me, this isn't just a collection of rare songs but a full-on SY album from start to finish. Favorite track: Star Power (Acoustic '09).

ixlav Droning guitars and noisy yet beatiful textures that really make you feel everything at once. Favorite track: The Sprawl.

PIDGE Before there was a commercial element to their music. Sonic Youth was fully developed at this point and the sound is aggressive and punk. Yes earlier albums have the same feel but Daydream Nation is super tight musically. Favorite track: Candle.

dlberes Finally had to have this lossless 😮‍💨 Favorite track: Teen Age Riot.
