according to the thurston interview.

so if this is indeed the case and they're gonna split at some point soon what are your thoughts?

i should stress that all this is based on the thurston interview in the other thread, all he says is "sonic youth are over", so make of it what you will.

to be honest i feel guilty for ripping on the eternal on here haha. i actually think anti orgasm and malibu gas station are brilliant. anti orgasm is the song i wanted them to make for years and the direction i always dreamed they would go in, but i don't like all of the rest of the album, or many of the songs on rather ripped. but its not a bad way to go out.

at one time they were my favourite band, i dont really care much about this music now but can never deny that it and its message board got me into so much of what im into know and without it i would have a shittier taste in music and my life would suck.

so thanks for being a node in mainstream culture that was easy to see and had tendrils creeping down to the underground, your influence on people in that respect has been MASSIVE, absolutely. it would be hard to underestimate how many of us got into such great music because of sy.
