Adolescent Sex -- "The Unconventional"
You know, Patrick, during ILX's absence I listened almost exclusively to Adolescent Sex, and I do have to say that your choice is absolutely beyond amazingly good. But I think if I were to change my mind about my own selection, I think I'd go for the album's OTHER funk 'n soul track, "Performance", which I was totally grooving on last night on my way to visit relatives.
btw, I love you ALL for participating in this! It's been great finding out your selections.

First And Last And Always - "Marian (version)"Floodland - "Lucretia My Reflection"Vision Thing - "Ribbons"
That said, the finest Sisters moments were non-album tracks like "Adrenochrome" and "Alice," but wha'ever.

Calla:calla: only drowning men(the beat, the beat, clacking steady underneath, this slow gentle buildup of sound and you could swear there was no voice to any of it, and the 'suzanne' loop at the end crackling away into irregular pauses and silence.)scavengers: fear of fireflies(slinking bassline, dark evening-cicada hum, major thirds in the guitar and the scrape of strings.)televise: monument(it's not their best album by any means, but that dull thud of programmed beat and bass and then sharp-edged guitar crashing over the top.)
Ride:smile: drive blind(the shine in the guitar as it starts.)nowhere: vapour trail(it sounds like its name; those artless vocals, still surprisingly charming, and the simplicity of the strings at the end.)going blank again: twisterella(it's just so. indie.)carnival of light: crown of creation(nigh impossible, this: I've loved this album too long and too hard. But 'crown of creation' is the cutest song ever, and I played it to death when I first got the record.)tarantula: ride the wind(the rest of the album suxx0rz. This at least has a sweet chorus, even if the vocals are egregiously out of tune. And I've a soft spot for the hammond.)
