    Hm, don't get me wrong. Sonic Youth is my favourite band, but this album just isn't that good. I find it pretty boring, and their worst album to date.

    It seems to complete a circle, to contain something of everything the band has attempted over the years.

    It's the arresting delicacy of the quieter, dreamier tunes that'll really rip up your emotions.

    Their songiest record in more than a decade. [Jun 2006, p.145]
