On NYC Ghosts & Flowers, it seems like Sonic Youth took a direction too close towards the avant-garde. Seemingly making it too difficult for fans to comprehend, the record struggled to make the message they wanted to communicate clear, provided that there was one?
The Whitey Albumwas initially meant to be a collaboration with Minutemen bassist Mike Watt. Ideally, it would have been a nice project on paper. Nevertheless, from a Sonic Youth sound perspective, fantasy went beyond reality and this highly experimental tribute to Madonna performed by Sonic Youth remains a collection of uneasy noise experiments and...
This album is a genuine collection of the early works from Sonic Youth. At the time the band was penniless, working petty jobs to make a living and, in their spare time, dedicated all efforts to experimenting and practising ‘new’ sounds. Of course, if you are a Sonic Youth bonafide fan, you may consider this album spellbinding—especially when liste...
Similarly to Confusion is Sex,Sonic Youth’s self-titled EP complements the no-wave response to the new wave musical movement. Although it is only a five-song EP, this record can be considered the first Sonic Youth album hence its inclusion here. It is an underground work and all tracks sound tribal, unsophisticated, and joyless. In addition, this a...
No one really knows the reason behind Sonic Youth’s decision to quit Geffen records after 20 years and move to the legendary Matador record label—but the rest result was The Eternal. It is therefore right to approach The Eternalwith the knowledge that after such a long and glorious career, the band exhausted what they had to say and one cannot expe...
With this album, Sonic Youth attempted a comeback to their origins. This change of direction is because, according to the band, is a result of the previous project which left the four in the grip of boredom. The band had almost made a fool of themselves with the primary essence of the record: the smell of the live concert, the charm of crackles, th...
A bonafide Sonic Youth fan could say that the problem is not in the record itself, which is indeed honest, recognisable and well structured, but rather in what is expected by Sonic Youth. Rather Rippedhas a strange effect. This effort comes without Jim O’Rourke in the team, where the band members return to concentrate on the six strings, without to...
Inspired by the 16th-century French pastry mille-feuille (which means a thousand leaves), this very same cake became very popular a couple of centuries later under Napoleon Bonaparte’s reign. Regrettably, this Sonic Youth album did not obtain the same success as the pastry. In particular, this work did not receive the deserved recognition. In this ...
The year 1985 is a turning point. Among all the news, the most important one is undoubtedly the arrival of the new drummer Steve Shelley, who from that moment on will permanently remain the drummer of the group. Musically, there is a novelty concerning Bad Moon Rising. That scary fury is missing, the one that tore the dirtiest songs and moves on to...
For sure, Washing Machineredeems the previous album and cements Sonic Youth one of the greatest bands of all time. Honestly, can you think of any bands today that would have the guts to recover from a disappointing release so fast? This album is undoubtedly one characterised by the warmest sound. The first notes of the first track ‘Becuz’ on bass d...
Sonic Youth, which initially comprised guitarist / vocalists Thurston Moore and Lee Ranaldo, guitarist / bassist / vocalist Kim Gordon and drummer Richard Edson, were formed in New York City in 1981. A product of the No-Wave music scene of the late 1970s, the group had their roots in abrasive, experimental music, with Moore and Ranaldo having previously worked with the experimental composer ...
