I really love the discordant first part and the krautrock sludgery of the second part makes it an amazing listening of what was already interesting :)

v If I recall correctly, the album was recorded in Memphis, and Kim imitated the local accent.

"Am I the only one a bit unnerved by Kim's apparent imitation of a "black chick"?" Well, now that you put it like that, the vocal does seem a bit... off. Thankfully the music is amazing as usual.

Most of the songs on Washing Machine have no bass on them, but a couple of them do (Panty Lies, Skip Tracer, and the Diamond Sea I think) Awesome song, btw

I read somewhere that Sonic Youth, and Kim in particular, did not use a bass on this record. Presumeably because Kim was getting tired of that "girl-playing-bass- in-a-rockband" stereotype that she had got - instead they used a guitar with thick strings tuned way down to get some kind of bass-y sound. Which would explain why you can't hear any bass in this song. (I remember reading it in a comment box on a youtube clip of Washing Mashine from German television) Please correct me if I am wrong.

in 1995, Sonic Youth decided that they actually wanted to change their name to Washing Machine LOL

The guitar riff about 4 half minutes is just something else, I could listen to that forever. This song is amazing!
