when did you realize lee was the best member of sonic youth

whenever thurston the annoying hipster and kim the crazy feminist actually let him put a song on an album it was usually the best one

>rain king
>hey joni
>mote
>wish fulfillment

Truth OP. Lee is definitely underrated. I always thought he was a more interesting guitar player and songwriter than Thurston "punk rock" Moore. He also seems like the one who's the most fun to hang out with

Kim has the best post-SY career though.

true

thurston didn't let him put this song on dirty, what a shame

post your top 5 SY records

2. EVOL
3. Daydream Nation
4. Dirty
5. Confusion Is Sex

Thing is that Lee probably was just as prolific as he was, if he was the main driving force there probably wouldn't even be half as many Sonic Youth albums as there are today. His quality over quantity gives him a better track record, but the band wouldn't have made it if Thurston and Kim didn't shit out enough material for an album every second year.

good to see all the love for the dirty itt

i was always under the impression that it was a bit underappreciated (especially compared to goo, which, despite being one of their more popular albums, is also one of their weakest imo)

He's also responsible for one of the best songs by the Cribs

Found the p4k drone.

Only ignant' people think Thurston is superior to Lee. Lee in every way, is the most superior member. To think that he almost left the band during Dirrty because they didn't allow him his songs. A big fuck you to Thurston Moore, I hate that guy.
>>
>>65435618
My first SY record was Goo and it was pretty evident as soon as he opened his mouth on Mote

>actually let him put a song on an album
Did you ever consider that maybe he just didn't write as much as they did

>>65435738
Genetic is outstanding but it would feel super out of place on Dirty (or any other SY record for that matter, even the later pop ones). It wasn't the wrong decision.

>>65435773
1. EVOL
2. Sister
3. Sonic Youth EP

c'mon that observation isn't that far off. thurston was always the "too cool for school" guy that raves about black metal and could never not be ironic. kim's cool though, i give you that.
