This is not Sonic Youth's best work, but it was an evolution for them and a change that would bring them to some big success later on. As we've talked about a lot of albums are picked on lists like this because of their influence, this album definitely fits that bill.
Let's say it's Saturday. A beautiful sunny day, but your mood is a dark storm. Put some headphones on and go for a walk with this album playing and you won't be disappointed.
Following the Rhapsody rating method I give it 2 out of 5 stars for Not Bad.
I did not like this song.
ReplyDeleteWhat a different world it must be to grow up at Concord Elementary School, Heath Middle School and Heath High School today than it was 1975-86. I didn't start watching 120 Minutes until after I went away to college, so I just had zero clue that any music that sounded like this was out there.
