Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture brad Average	#1 by brad at Sep 29, 2007 at 7:12 PM EST
	This song leads me to believe that the new album will be quite promising. And that there is still sound out there meant for our ears. Great song though, with amazing lyrics, but what else could you expect from Sonic Youth. Glad to see Sonic Youth is still going strong.

No Picture bob Average	#2 by bob fred at Oct 4, 2007 at 12:30 PM EST
	wonderful lyrics and a wonderful song on top of that. to me it sounds like there's this guy who can't get rid of a memory (of a girl) and he's burning out because he obsesses about it all the time. i probably interpret it that way because i'm the guy who's burning out right now.

No Picture micheal Lead Player	#3 by micheal mceachern at Oct 7, 2007 at 11:47 AM EST
	nothin beats that deep voice

No Picture Chase Wanna Be	#4 by Chase Hendrix at Oct 9, 2007 at 8:55 PM EST
	Awesome song, but man would it benefit with some distortion, some production - anyone with me here?

No Picture Ben Rhythm Player	#5 by Ben Jammin at Oct 10, 2007 at 11:02 PM EST
	I agree with proxima on this one. The guy can't get rid of a memory, and its burning him down because he still possesses passion, or "fire" for the girl, but she doesn't want him back. ("you doused my soul with gasoline", "the sirens are coming to put me out of misery")

No Picture David Average	#6 by David Eldridge at Oct 11, 2007 at 2:31 AM EST
	How can they keep putting out amazing stuff like this? First Murray Street, then Sonic Nurse, and now "Incinerate" shows a lot of promise. Can't wait for the new LP.

No Picture chris the pirat Lead Player	#7 by chris the pirate. arr at Oct 14, 2007 at 5:44 AM EST
	when i first listened to the lyrics it sounded like he orchestrated a fire to kill off his wife. He escaped while his wife died. I mean, metaphorical firefighters sound kind of retarded, so i'm assuming he means real ones literally putting out his house, spraying him down, and consoling him when they find his dead burnt wife.

No Picture Josh Lead Player	#8 by Josh Ripley at Oct 14, 2007 at 12:01 PM EST
	I always thought this song was about a guy who kills his girlfriend and tries to burn her body.

No Picture Joshua Wanna Be	#9 by Joshua graham at Oct 17, 2007 at 12:26 PM EST
	Lee Renaldo and Thurston Moore are easily the best "guitar-duo" to ever exist. The back to back guitar riffs in this song are just genius. Not to mention the guitar solo makes my heart race. Excellent, excellent song.

No Picture Michael Rhythm Player	#10 by Michael Roache at Oct 19, 2007 at 6:48 PM EST
	Besides all the allusions to fire, the song still manages to burn within us.

No Picture Berenice Average	#11 by Berenice Issaris at Oct 20, 2007 at 7:52 PM EST
	Great song... great great.
