It depends on the type of music the person likes. The first Sonic Youth song I heard was Mote, and that definitely turned me on to them. At that point I was into hard rock/punk. I think your everyday person would initially like stuff off of Dirty the best (100%, Chapel Hill, Sugar Kane, Purr). Someone who's into indie rock could probably start out with Schizophrenia, Tom Violence, Teenage Riot, Stereo Sanctity, etc...
