Title: Peace prevails
Product review: Thumbing through the reviews here is interesting, as we see comparisons between Sonic Nurse and Goo, Dirty, Daydream Nation, Evol, Murray Street, NYC Ghosts & Flowers, the early work from the 1980's ... pretty much the band's entire oeuvre. And I agree, it bears favorable comparison with all of the above and more.Whether this is SY's "best album ever" is another matter, and ultimately a trivial one. This record should attract more listeners and inspire interest in their previous work, and surely that's praise enough.What stands out is how the band has truly collaborated here in a way they have not always done. It's hard to hear the lines between the "Kim songs," the "Thurston songs," the "Lee songs." This is more blended, more -- dare I say the word -- mature effort.Yes, it's a little bit languid in parts, but how long can we reasonably expect the band to keep rocking out like they're 20?This is a great album for SY fans, and a good starting point for newcomers.
