About “Sister Ray” A preternaturally influential noise-rock jam that constituted most of side two of White Light/White Heat (the rest of it was taken up by another noisy rocker, “I Heard Her Call My Name”). Even though it may sound less brain-melting now that its feedback laden sound has become a part of the indie rock and punk mainframe, it still packs a punch. Supposedly, while recording the song, the band did it all in one take, leaving in all mistakes and inconsistencies.
