That is weird. The Edge said the same thing in It Might Get Loud (2008). Now you got me wondering if the Edge got that from Sonic Youth.

I felt the Rolling Stones was trying carry on the spirit of Gram Parsons in the way they wrote and played their Country songs. If anything it was Gram Parsons who killed his idols first, and the Stones were paying homage to him. Even if the Stones took the piss out of Country by having fun with it, who cares? It isn't like no one ever written a goofy Country song in all the history of Country music.

Here’s one ****ers:

Sonic Youth are better than The Rolling Stones

There's so many songs on those 4 albums that do not have any country influence. I'll make a list if you'd like.

Close enough. At least this album. This track right here is quite possible the most raw rock track ever set forth. Kim Gordon sounds like hate. Even the intro sets you up to be absolutely startled when the song actually starts.

I dig that album but that track kind of eclipses the rest of the album for me so that I need to actively make time for the rest. It's just the best ****ing track. The rest is fantastic too though.

I’m not even sure if it’s my favorite track on that album.

I love everything about it start to finish and I know it like the back of my hand.

Making the Nature Scene has had a profound impact on my mental health. I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about that song even when I’m not listening to music. It’s sort of like that song represents one of my secret identities or I have a way of becoming that song.

That’s an album I can listen to in my head completely by memory.

Please do make that list, and annotate it with what genre each song is. Thank you.
