the basic thing to sonic youth's sound, as they talk about in interviews, is that they used shitty guitars, guitars which were basicallyhopeless and nearly useless. They would alter them, tweak them, fuck with them, until the guitar did something that they thougth sounded cool,a wail, or a ringing, or a screech, or a fucked up feedback sustain. then they would write songs to fit those guitar noises.
so I suggest you get yourself some shit guitars, and go to town on them, alter them, stick fucked up shit in em, put the strings on backwards and tune them like a viola.
