Favorite band. Period.

Boredoms
Residents

Could you imagine a Sonic Youth / Boredoms or a Sonic Youth / Residents tour. Jesus Christ.

Yeah, then The Velvet Underground.

in the last 10 years i havnt like any other band as much as sonic youth up until a few months ago. now erase errata is tied w/ sonic youth. i might even like erase errata a little more now ...shhhhhh

When it comes to bands Sonic Youth are my favorite, but as far as music in general They are not.

they are my favorite by perhaps a slight hair over, but these are the bands i'm gaga over getting to hear as much music by them:

radiohead
boredoms
bardo pond
yo la tengo

by the way, you have some seriously weird, other favorite bands

unstoppable!!!!

gghh
 

I prefer Radiohead, Augie March & Pink Floyd over S.Youth. But their top 5 five and always will be

i can't possibly rank one band above another. i love different bands for different reasons, most of which i can't identify. i don't really know exactly why i love SY, nor how much i love SY in relation to other bands. but, they are very special to me (and you, as well) and that is all that matters.

EDIT: i take that first sentence back. i rate SY over Limp Bizkit.

Yes, Sonic Youth are pretty much my favourite band. No other band makes me feel excited and happy like they do.

I share my love among SY, Mogwai and The Fall..

Going to see Mogwai live next weekend for the 1st time in my life! Man I'm so fuckin excited!

i don't really have a ranking system. For me sy is the best band ever but this could change in 2 minutes though i will always love sy

Sonic Youth has more than often been my favorite band.
Once Dinosaur Jr won my affection (til I saw them live), then I got back to SY. Then came (back) the Cramps, then Girls Against Boys. I grew tired of them in awhile & went back to SY. Then blasted the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion (but their last two albums weren't as fine as Acme or Now I Got Worry... but they ain't dead yet).
Sonic Youth never seems to wane.
The Fall, Television Personalities & Thee Headcoatees are well represented on my shelves.

its a tie between mudhoney , sonic youth and nirvana

hey, another irish boardie!!!! welcome!

tough call but if a gun was put to my head and that question screamed at me very loUdly "WHO IS YR FAV BAND ASSHOLE, ANSWER NOW¬!!!!!!!!!!!" i would have to say sy. the fall coming a close second

UUMMM................i dont like to pick a #1....just for the fact that my opinion changes every single day.....Right now its the Beat Happning

Alas, I'm only pseudo-Irish. I'm an American student at University of Limerick. But I still have some family over here and don't want to go back to the states.

Hey how are you, i'm irish too.
Sonic Youth and Nine Inch Nails equal

Pavement
Sonic Youth
