How can The Eternal be a "return to form" if Rather Ripped had already "sparked them back into contemporary relevancy"?

damn! reverse the order maybe? voted for NYCG&F--their most gorgeous work ever, sonically speaking--just to spite pitchfork, basically. but pretty much love 'em all to one degree or another. i really dig Lee's "bad" beat poetry, even. and wtf, Kevin, the Karen songs are the highlight's of the respective albums they're each sandwiched amidst.
Bad Moon Rising is their worst ever, fwiw.

yeah yeah yeah, i know. but "DV '69" aside i don't really get that one. Walls Have Ears smokes both Bad Moon Rising and Evol, imho.

There is a great version of Death Valley '69 on Walls Have Ears, yeah.
But Brave Men Run, I Love Her All The Time... no?

they're ok but nothing revelatory. i much prefer the "Flower"/"Halloween" 12" myself.
― Ioannis, Tuesday, 14 July 2009 09:33 (fourteen years ago) link
there are 3 songs on bad moon rising: side A, 3/4 of side B, and "death valley 69"
the first 2 songs are awesome

I love "Brave Men Run" and the bonus tracks, and "Death Valley" is a lot of fun live, but yeah Bad Moon is way down among my 2 or 3 least fave SY albums. But then, I'm not a huge fan of the pre-Shelly stuff and my favorite release from that era is Sonic Death.

Well, I agree with you on "Karen Koltrane."
