Yeah, not gonna happen. Though I was THIS close to posting my favorite Sonic Youth song as an in-joke.

The first three tracks of Attack on Memory is perhaps the best, most coherent three track sequencing opening to an album I can remember in years. It's just perfect. The slow build of Wasted Days, followed by the brilliant No Future/No Past which is practically a statement of purpose, and then swing you back to the bouncy pop punk of Fall In. It's when Cloud Nothings went from "band I really like" to "band that I think is perhaps the best on the planet right now".
