is this one good? I stopped listening after The Wraith.

Skullflower - Slepinir

This is fantastic, i think its the first time ive ever "Got" Skullflower.

I love this EP. It contains the song Dutch Courage, which is my favorite by Rapeman.

Puts the Wraith to shame. They haven't made a better album since.

Still SY live in 1985, this was a good year!

Especially now that Expressway starts to appear on the setlist.

SY 1986

Gastr del Sol - The Point, Atlanta 09-23-1995 DVD.

A bit too "math rock" for me so far, I think I prefer Jim O'Rourke solo.

EDIT: Jim was also a lot fatter, I can barely recognize him compared to when he joined Sonic Youth...

EDIT n° 2: well the second half of the show is more to my taste.

St. Vincent - Marry me

Melvins - Stag ( good alt. noise)
Dir en Grey - Kisou ( first intention of this band to make experimental rock)
Miyavi - Gagaku ( i love industrial rock)

Crucifucks

A most unhinged collective

Seriously, Brad, look into it. Hell's Pit is easily the darkest album they've ever made, and is a definite shining example of J really stepping up his game as an emcee. I'd say the same about Shaggy but he has very few verses on the album as a whole.

I'll get around to it. Someday. ;)

Sonic Youth - The Red And The Black - coming to the end of the 86 shows now...
