It’s really insane that one of Sonic Youth’s best songs came near the tail end of their run. They’re that kind of timeless band.

They were definitely not “the” gateway to grunge. If anything the musicians in that scene credit Melvins WAY more. Doesn’t mean anything with regards to SY’s legacy. It would just be like saying Peter, Paul, and Mary were the gateway to nu metal.

A lot of it is the (13") zildjian k mastersound hi hats. He chose well because they need an airbrushed, dirty sound on top of their guitar walls.

The bridge section of this song at 3:05 in when Thurston bangs the guitar and then plays this tremendous crescendo that peaks with him up-picking hard and then slamming a power chord while simultaneously turning around and getting some squealy feedback and then turning back around and playing behind the bridge... that is almost Hendrix or Townshend rock guitar god playbook level.

One of their best songs and this performance is great

The dueling guitar solos at 3:05 punch SO much harder in this performance than in the album version. It's much more powerful and frantic, and kind of makes me wish the original matched the intensity captured here.

I’m so incredibly sad I didn’t get into them quicker but still happy to have found them. I remember in high school a kid in my class was wearing a sonic youth shirt, I being unaware of the band I ended up asking if it was a movie. My history teacher and him started laughing they had a good 30 difference between them, so that let me know that their sound spoke to a lot of different people no matter generation. As a fan of them now, I reflect on that memory as for telling the many nights crying and listening to the songs before my time; knowing both the student and my teacher must have years before me.

That guitar is so eloquently distorted and pretty. Makes me wanna cry. It speaks beautiful volumes.

Love how Lee, Kim, and Thurston are all kind of doing their own version of rocking back and forth on their feet while playing. :D

That guitar tone though

I was 17 when I saw them as well. When they toured a thousand leaves. What a fantastic memory. Sitting in the rafters of the stadium. . The sounds washing over all of us.

This is legendary.

Double bass madness ! ❤

I know this is said about so much music but that guitar harmony refrain they roll out throughout the song has to be one of the most beautiful guitar concoctions of the last 30 years, regardless of where this song stands in their oeuvre, that guitar refrain at least is fucking incredible, unimpeachable, genius, unnecessary chops confirmation, strutting gangsta leaning perfection *Fassbender perfection meme*

I listened Sonic Youth from 2018 and of course I'm a new fan of them. And this song is the first introduction for me to diggin' more discographies of them.

Excellence. Drumming is absolute.

T is a born showman. He’s fascinating to watch.

Immortals. Kim Gordon still as lively as she was

Such an awesome group!!! Saw them at the Reading Festival in 1991. Mind blowing!!!

I didn't care much about SY in the 1990s (of course I liked several songs) but I fell for Rather Ripped the moment it came out. And I never got tired of it

what a great performance...so glad I found this cheers from South Australia...Adelaide

Yeah. Let's see A.I. put something like THIS together. : )

I'm not sure if this is my neighbor's favorite band but the cops sure love them.

I love this damn song. Great session.
