Title: DON"T BELIEVE THE HYPE!
Review: If you've already heard Daydream Nation don't waste yr time on this. First let me say that I AM a Sonic Youth fan. Daydream Nation is my favorite rock album and EVOL is damn close. The problem with this record is a.) none of the melodies can compete with "Starpower"(the best song on Evol) or anything on DN. Problem b.) is that the production is the worst I Have EVER HEARD. I like lo fi recordings-Velvet Underground's White heat Light has the coolest sound ever-but Sister's production covers all the jangling guitas and harmonics with a boring warm sound. The band's playing also sucks-"Hotwire my Heart" is one of the crappiest songs I've ever heard. The record isn't a throw away though because "Schizophrenia" and "Kotton Krown" are gorgeous despite the production. But 2 songs for $15-it ain't worth it. Stick with Daydream and EVOL.
Is the review positive or negative?
