Description:Sonic Youth mit dem, was viele für ihr zugänglichstes Album halten und dem ersten Album ohne Multiinstrumentalist Jim O'Rourke. â??Rather Ripped" enthält eine Fülle von prägnanten Songs, die sich mit melancholischen Themen wie Ehebruch, sexueller Frustration und Untreue befassen. "Reena" und "Jams Run Free" sind zu gleichen Teilen verträumt und treibend, während "The Neutral" ein süÃ?es, unaufdringliches Liebeslied ist. Die atmosphärischeren Songs gehören am Ende zu den überzeugendsten. "Lights Out" riecht nach flüsternder, nächtlicher Coolness, und das abschlieÃ?ende "Or" ist einer der fiesesten und seltsam beunruhigensten Songs, die Sonic Youth seit langem geschrieben haben. - 180 GRAMS// DOWNLOAD
Rather Ripped is the 14th studio album by the American experimental rock band Sonic Youth, released on June 13, 2006 by Geffen Records. It is the band's first album after the departure of multi-instrumentalist Jim O'Rourke, who joined the group as a fifth member in 1999. Unlike it's immediate predecessors, the album was produced by John Agnello and recorded at Sear Sound in New York City, the same studio where the band's 1994 album Experimental Jet Set, Trash and No Star was recorded. It also completed Sonic Youth's contract with Geffen, which released the band's previous eight records. - Rather Ripped is generally considered one of the band's most accessible albums, featuring an abundance of concise and catchy songs that deal with melancholic topics about adultery, sexual frustration and infidelity. Upon release, the album peaked at No. 71 on the US Billboard 200 chart and No. 64 on the UK Albums Chart.
