SY made a big contribution in terms of the modern guitar approach and band composition, yung mga drone, odd-tunings, feedback, long form noise, at use of effects. Art rock noise na naki halo sa SST at underground na eksena kaya bumigat ang tugtugan. Pero ang lawak pa rin ng range ng music nila, may tahimik, free-form, poppy... living proof of what a band can accomplish when they have an open mind (and without resorting to retro plagiarism)
SY faves songs: "expressway to yr skull", "teenege riot"
