An impeccably selected hodgepodge.
-
Each track offers something worthwhile, yet none raises any question as to why it ended up here.
-
The Destroyed Room is a creative -- and quintessentially Sonic Youth -- approach to the rarities and B-sides comp.
-
UncutThis largely instrumental set is a nicely ambient version of their usual hellacious harmonics, but also a reminder how the band have attained creative control on a major label. [Feb 2007, p.85]
-
More for the dedicated convert than the curious.
-
Nonessential stuff, for sure, but worthwhile for anyone interested in hearing old pros kicking back and working out ideas.
-
Track after track in an aimless blur of humming amps, pointless mucking about with effects, dreary jams propelled by meandering guitar interplay, and bleak, endless droning.
