New Stuff: Sonic Youth



Although I do have the complete back catalogue of Sonic Youth's main albums, I'm still a bit behind with the SYR series. This edition is interesting since it contains several John Cage compositions.

I love Sonic Youth's rock albums and have great respect for their support of avant-garde music — I used to see Thurston Moore and Kim Gordon at experimental shows in NYC all the time — but I've never been crazy about most of the SYR recordings or their other ventures into non-rock music. This disc especially is suprisingly bland considering the range of the composers they're tackling. I always just stick to their consistently great ouevre of edgy rock albums.
