Title: Noisy heroin induced junk
Review: I mean honestly, this album sucks. I know its supposedly the prototype for punk, but c'mon there are much better examples of proto punk, i.e. The Stooges. There is just too much heroin on this record. "Sister Ray" is a noisy mess. The only worthwhile track is the title track. The rest of the album is just an all out attack on quality music. Don't get me wrong, I love rawness and imperfection in my rock music, but this is just crap. There are better representations of what the Velvet Underground were capable of and how influential they were for punk and indie music. Pick up the slightly overrated "Velvet Underground and Nico" and also the very underrated "Velvet Underground." But skip this one all together. You'll be better for it. nuff said
