Tonight: Sonic Youth @ 9:30 Club

Yepp, tonight I'll be attending a sold-out Sonic Youth concert at the 9:30 Club in DC. Sonic Youth have, as you probably know, recently released a new album (The Eternal) and are currently touring to support it ofcourse. Based on what I've seen, the setlist will mostly consist of The Eternal songs plus a couple of older stuff and the encore will be old stuff. Opening for them will be the LA-based Psychadelic-Alternative rock band The Entrance Band, now I don't know much of them so this will be something new to me, I admit I'm not much of a fan of Psych rock bands (except Syd Barrett era Pink Floyd) but this could be good, lol.

hahahahahahahahahaha

Sonic Youth - SYR 8: Andre Sider Af Sonic Youth

This was an album of free-form noise music released by Sonic Youth in 2008, it was recorded at the 2005 Roskilde Festival in July 2005 over the course of one hour. It features Jim O'Rouke on guitar, Mats Gustafsson on saxophone and japanese avant-garde musician Merzbow on his laptop. The title is Danish (i think) for "The other sides of Sonic Youth". Great album for fans of both Sonic Youth and free-form music.

Tracklist:

1. Andre Sider Af Sonic Youth


Yes, there's only one track on the album. Its not a mistake.

Sonic Youth - Rather Ripped Album Sampler

An EP that Sonic Youth put out in 2006. All these songs were later released on Rather Ripped, hence the name. Anyway I uploaded this because a) Its hard to find in its original form (pun intended), b) its good and c) Its a great way to decide whether or not you should get the Rather Ripped album, I'll admit that I don't have Rather Ripped, but it sounds like a good record, especially the cover!

Tracklist:

1. Incinerate
2. Reena
3. Do You Belive in Rapture
4. What a Waste

Mediafire

All songs composed by Sonic Youth, vocals on tracks 1 & 3 by Thurston Moore, 2 & 4 by Kim Gordon

Sonic Youth - Silver Session for Jason Knuth

Its an album that New York based Alternative/Experimental/Noise/No Wave band Sonic Youth did in 1998, although the album is 29 minutes long, its still viewed as an EP but never mind. The album consists entirely of feedback from the bands guitars, plus the out of sync drum machine here and there, the band dedicated this album to Jason Knuth, a Sonic Youth fan who killed himself. Really good Noise but probably not the most popularily accessable SY album and definetly not a good introduction to SY for a more casual listener.

Tracklist:

1. Silver Panties
2. Silver Breeze
3. Silver Flower
4. Silver Wax Lips
5. Silver Loop
6. Silver Shirt
7. Silver Son
8. Silver Mirror
