You know, in some ways, it's more perfect and more accomplished than Evol. It just doesn't have as much emotional resonance for me. (Or, more accurately, it resonates with emotions I feel less often.) Evol and Sister get the most regular play. I really need to be in the mood to listen to the first two. Despite some lyrics, Bad Moon Rising is quite an achievement though. It's amazing how little the production gets talked about. It doesn't sound dated at all. It's more like Swans/Neubauten industrial (but probably more fully realized) than like punk or indie rock, which is probably why it doesn't get as much notice from most critics. It's the only 80s SY album that didn't make Stairway to Hell!

i'm forever defending bad moon rising - 'i love her all the time' is perhaps my favourite sy song. to me, there is a holy sy trinity that is bad moon, evol and sister. after that, they never scaled such peaks again.

Huh. Well, Bad Moon Rising was one of the few Sonic Youth albums produced by Martin Bisi (who also produced Evol, I think.) His other production credits include several Swans albums, and that post-Swans project "Angels of Ligh

Well, I'm on the "Evol" & "Sister" tip, m'self. "Bad Moon Rising" is too much of a construction for my tastes. You have to take the whole thing in one bite, or not at all. By contrast, their next three albums are more easily digested in parts.

BTW, I know everyone around here thinks "Daydream Nation" sucks, but I love it. I truly don't hear the bad production that everyone complains about, and I think it contains some of SY's most focused noise-art and best songs.

I'm with the defender of Daydream Nation... ignore the production (not that I ever noticed myself) and hear the truly great sounds and rock

Ditto Ned. Daydream Nation is the pinnacle. What's all this talk about hate?

Bad Moon Rising is pretty darned good. One neat thing about my copy...it's the Blast First edition, and there's some wonko numbering going on. I think my copy has no track 9. Anyone else notice this?

personally, i think all of sonic youth's albums are fucking masterpieces and i find it hard to compare them since they are all so different from one another. who says u have to take bad moon rising in one piece? what bullshit...i'll take it how i please.

I like EVOL way more than Bad Moon Rising which always sounded muddled and kinda bleh to me. That said the bonus tracks on the latter kick ass six ways from Sunday on the former. I'll take the "Flower" single any day of the week over "Bubblegum". I hate "Bubblegum".

No, no. Sister is concise, focused, textured and beautiful. Bad Moon Rising also features the whiny (overated) squarking of Lydia Lunch.

I am in full agreement with the daydream nationers. Sister is one hell of an album as well. You guys ever get into the thurston moore side project called "psychic hearts"? Lee Renaldo's side projects are pretty damn amazing as well in my very humble opinion.

Dirty's a great place to start, Body. As for Bad Moon Rising, it's at least their best album cover. Their current drummer remembers staring at it for hours in the record store.

But this is the best Sonic Youth album. Why don't they do the between song ambience any more? Really this album anticipated Washing Machine/A Thousand Leaves. Parts of it sound very similar to the recent B-sides thing they put out.

Okay this is a bit weird...I pulled this album out earlier tonight before I saw this thread was revived. I'm shocked to find someone else revived it besides me! Yes..."Brave Men Run..." etc. I mainly pulled it out for "I Love Her All The Time", but I did play it from the beginning and let it roll. Sometimes I really, really love this album, and other times it doesn't grab me as much. It's kindof strange like that. I really dug it tonight, though. No doubt.

The thing to remember is that there was ABSOLUTELY NOTHING which sounded anything like BMR when it came out. They refined it, other people picked up on it, but it was just shockingly new at the time.

― Soukesian, Friday, 19 October 2007 18:47 (5 years ago) Permalink

The only track I'll return to here is "Death Valley `69", which still fucking delivers.

― Alex in NYC, Friday, 19 October 2007 21:20 (5 years ago) Permalink

I only ever listen to "Brave Men Run".

"Sister" is the best one, tbh.

― PhilK, Friday, 19 October 2007 21:34 (5 years ago) Permalink

The whole first side is seamless, and I think I've said it elsewhere but I really wish that more people would use *this* album as their inspiration when they want to be influenced by Sonic Youth. The way Society is a Hole and I Love Her All The Time emerge from chaotic between-song collage remains breathtaking. I've never been as big on side two...seems like a lead-up to DV69, which sounds like Evol.

Secret theory is that once the band found a "good" drummer, the end was near, with Evol and Sister being (fantastic) documents of a band that had already peaked conceptually.

Weird. I just downloaded BMR this morning and am currently listening to it for the first time - jaw on the floor. The only Sonic Youth I'd heard previously was Daydream Nation, Goo, and Dirty. I can confidently say that the better qualities of those albums pale before anything on here. This record is the shit! I am on "Satan Is Boring" right now.

― kingkongvsgodzilla, Saturday, 20 October 2007 02:00 (5 years ago) Permalink

I totally agree with both dlp and Soukesian, I think part of my response to this record may have been my age and the time it came out in... familiar motifs for those incandescent early music experiences. The cover made a visceral impact, standing out from a wall of nondescript albums like a giant signal bonfire. The music itself had a cataclysmic impact on me and many of my friends. I may never love an album so much and so completely ever again (I was 19 when it came out, btw).

I completely forgot to back Bimble up! I never would have predicted back in the 80's that I'd feel that way, but here I am. Best SY album is the first one with nerdy-looking Kim on the cover. Who knew!

(When I first bought it, on vinyl no less, it mystified me every bit as much as 2nd Edition. Where's the distorto-guitars and the punk rock 'n' roll, I wondered.)

My other unexpected SY favorite is the 1st track off of NYCG&F. Did they ever do anything else in such a weird time sig?

― dlp9001, Monday, 22 October 2007 01:03 (5 years ago) Permalink

What time signature is "Free City Rhymes" in? I like that one too. I don't have the greatest ear for this but I just count it in 4 with some syncopation and layered guitar lines coming in at weird places. The drums emphasize 2 and the "&"'s of 3 and 4, AFAICT. But, like I said, my aural skills need serious work.

I should have said that I do listen to Sonic Nurse and Murray St a fair bit.

― Sundar, Monday, 22 October 2007 04:03 (5 years ago) Permalink

I could be wrong, but was listening to it on the train this morning and the drums are in 4, but the main guitar is in 5 (so they sync up every 20 beats). Not sure about the vocals or the other noticable guitar, and actually I'm not sure if that counts as a weird time sig! Whatever it is, I think it may be my favorite post-Sister track of theirs.

Robert Palmer named it his favorite album of the year in the New York Times. Later, a major label A&R guy called him up and cussed him out for making him waste his time.

Boggled to read Jim upthread saying he hasnt heard anything pre-DDN. Is this still the case?! Dude you have to at least hear Sister and EVOL!

I had a limited-run AuGoGo pressing of Bad Moon Rising/EVOL as a numbered special double pack vinyl with a poster and funky plasticy vinyl pouch thing. Must be worth quite a lot. Or would be - if I hadn't somehow one day drunkenly stood/knelt on my copy of EVOL and snapped it in half ;_;

i'm in that club though i've never met a fellow member. i still clearly remember buying it not long after it came out (having only heard death valley '69) and the guy in the record shop who sold me it being crazily excited that someone had bought a copy. he built the record up to such epic proportions that i was sure it was going to be a huge anti climax but of course he was exactly right and it wasn't.

― stirmonster, Saturday, 10 November 2012 03:19 (7 months ago) Permalink

The first 2 songs of BMR essentially boils their entire career into a short 5 minutes:

Everything you need to know is all there, the long spacey passages of Daydream Nation, the catchy "almost-pop" of the 90s, Kim playing tough, tape-loops, free-form noise dro, prepared guitar, open tunings for days, the (proto-)Steve Shelley shuffle, squalory whale calls of feedback, metronomic bass...

Somewhere upthread I talk about seeing the cover on the wall of a store that summer and being super intrigued, when I went back to college that fall ('85) one of the first people I met was a super cool girl who had that (and Alien Soundtracks, and other excellent records).

why do I think it'll be overlooked or why is it a shame?

To answer the first, it's never been released, so shouldn't be considered a reissue, but because it's old and a live show a lot of people will dismiss it out of hand.

For the second, it's one of the best things to come out this year, and I would argue one of the very best things in Sonic Youth's catalog. It deserves to be recognized.

I understand why Zep did so well, but to dismiss archival first releases in general is weird. I don't expect this to be even a blip, though maybe with Sonic Youth inactive/kaput it'll get some sympathy. I'm just saying it should get more consideration than it will, because it's awesome.

Yeah, they actually address that issue in the liner notes. The guy who taped the show at the higher quality apparently didn't start recording right away, so they patched in another, lower fidelity source for the start of the set. They liked the way it sounded, as if the band like really kicks in.
