My personal faves are Daydream, Sister, Evol
However i think Dirty and Goo are for sure the most accessible and "conventional" by sy standards. Rather Ripped is really, really tight, best stuff from them in a while.

washing machine and nyc ghosts & flowers are definitely two of my all time favorites, murray street and daydream nation are pretty high up there as well.

I think it's their best album.... Diamond Sea is the most amazing thing ever, and no foolin'.......

Free City Rhymes reminds me of why I like music.

Anyone else think it's funny that Thurston Moore stole Stephen Malkmus' CGDGBe tuning? He tuned the high e to a b, but Malkmus didn't use that string anyway.

Isn't that the guitaristic equivalent of frotting?

Damn that looks like a fun video! Last few times I saw them they didn't really jam much noise :( i have a cool video somewhere where the set ends with Thurston rolling around the stage with a contact mic in his mouth. Brilliant stuff!!

Man I miss SY :( like big time!!!
