56, 51, 53, and 47. You can't really blame Sonic Youth for putting out a largely forgettable album after almost 30 years of being together. I mean, at their age most bands just stop writing new music and fall back on their catalog of hits (oh, right). It's decent enough, but it doesn't do anything new. Sorry Sonic Youth, major deduction for not altering the stale formula of rock in a radical and original way for the billiontieth time in your career you old fogeys.

Sonic Youth.
Heh heh heh.
I've got to disagree that they're not memorable. I'm stuck on "Walkin' Blue" right now. That's one of Lee's best songs in a few albums. Feel free to disagree.
I'll concede the second half is more forgettable, because I understand if you can't get into lyrics like, "Who shot the poison arrow?"
Also, Ed McMahon died.
Yeah, what the fuck?
That was pretty sad.
was he the homophone from the telethons
o wait that was this guy
Oh the downside of rock music. Sonic Youth had a pretty good run, though. We'll all always have Goo and Daydream Nation.
yeah goo goo dolls are awsome
