The Destroyed Room: B-Sides And Rarities by Sonic Youth

I don't think I can recommend this to anybody except hardcore Sonic Youth fans. Most of the songs on this b-sides collection (isn't that as antiquated a term as any?) just feel completely unfinished, as though they were beginnings of songs that could have appeared later. Just jams and riffs. I guess I enjoyed it, but I sometimes enjoy NYC Ghosts & Flowers, too, and I wouldn't wish that cd on my worst enemy, Paul Sorvino. So don't go buy this I guess, although it's way better than NYC Ghosts.
