-- Get your import bin money up:
Sonic Youth will release a Japan-only box set version of their new album
The Eternal.
The Eternal - Sonik Tooth Box will include the new album with two bonus tracks (taken from their
Record Store Day split 7"s) and Japanese translations of the lyrics, a live CD taped at Battery Park, the
Sonic Death '09 zine, T-shirts by Toga Nejico, and a sticker. And judging from photographic evidence, a stick-figure drawing of a skull with a mohawk will be somehow involved, always a good sign. According to a
MySpace blog post, the box will be out June 3 on
Hostess, the band's new Japanese label.
