It's pretty hard to choose a favorite Sonic Youth album, but I wouldn't hesitate to choose this one. I think it is the most realized go at their noisy, feedback 4ever distortion riddled post-rock style. It's also an easy and relatively short listen in their discog at 45 minutes. There's never a dull moment, in my opinion, and it is recommended for people getting into them.
I might also add that I find this to be one of the best showcases of their musicianship, specifically guitar, there is some shredding all over this album to make anyone jealous of these chops.
And, it's just all around pleasant.
