since i've decided that sonic youth ILM threads just end up bugging me, how is the new one?

sir richard bishop - freak of araby

How is this?

i'm really liking it -- some discussion on a SRB thread, kind of middle eastern surf rock. full band, electric guitars, etc.

Yes, read the discussion the other thread, sounds pretty good. Just poking around for additional thoughts. Sounds like a winner so far, though!

My recent listening:

John Fahey - City of Refuge
Jackie-O Motherfucker - Flags of the Sacred Harp

scarface - the diary
wovoka - I & II

- Culoe de Song- The Bright Forest
- Fela Kuti- Expensive Shit
- Nina Simone- The Great Show Live in Paris

Henry Cow - The Road 10 CD box set (still, over and over)

tylerw, my one sentence review of the new SY LP after one listen is that there's a great song by Lee on it, and the "Anti-Orgasm" track is a more fleshed out version of their record store day single with Jay Reatard with extra rad guitar parts.
