But it pales in comparison to a lot of their other albums. Seriously.

Daydream Nation is my favourite Sonic Youth record and possibly my favourite ever. I don't listen to it very often anymore and when I do I don't feel much for it but in terms of influence it's had on me, the sentimental value can't overlook that. It was one of the first 'weird' albums I heard when I was 12 years old and it really opened my mind. I became into more esoteric stuff after that and ditched my old Megadeth albums (though looking back I could see why I liked them so much).
