Having just watched the recent vid of Thurston and Rollins dishing about Rollins' new book (interesting in itself, check other thread), it is noteworthy to see that Thurston is acting like his usual jovial/inquisitive self, as we have come to know him through filmed inverviews at least. This leads me to believe that the recent anouncement about changes in relationship status is not due to a sudden catastrophic event, but has been a long time coming, he has adjusted already, and we are just now hearing about it. Dude did not seem devestated, in accute emotional pain, etc... not that it's any of our business.

We just got spoiled having SY rock our faces off to the greatest extent that is possible for thirty freaking years, and we don't want it to stop.

I hope you fine cats have a great time... Me, I could attend the November 13th gig but I predict a double-awful context: first, it's one of those wretched dismal festivals with pathetic lineups and I guarantee you SY will not dig playing among such shit acts. Second, and worse, Kim and T will perform to a sea of goddamn mooks who'll spend an ungodly amount of time yelling at them not to get divorced. I wish I could go, abstract myself from the surrounding pestilence and just enjoy the show, but I'm afraid there are not enough drugs in the world to achieve such a lofty goal.

Geffen era isn't necessary my favorite. I love Sister and Daydream and to a slightly lesser extent Evol. The Geffen time is way too broad to just define as an era, there were 9 albums in those years. My favorite SY era is 1990-1995.

But how the fuck can the band play live and basically opt out of playing ANYTHING from 1990-2009 is beyond me, and that's what they did on much of the Eternal tour.

That's why I personally passed on seeing them live the last time they were here, I've seen SY 5 times, but I know when they are touring behind a new album they usually play 90% of that album. And maybe 4-5 other songs, including usually something from the super early SY/Confusion days which I don't really care about.

If SY was touring and playing a broad selection througout their career, I would find them a far far more compelling touring act.

They do the occasional show with a good varied selection (ie. the August show in NYC) but they have not done a show with the same kind of variety in my city in the 14 years I've been a fan of the band.


Yeah, they do tend to push the newest release when they're touring.

If my count is right, I've seen them 8 times. Only a few were not like this.

The Eternal tour was especially bad, mostly because the eternal material was so low in comparison to what they overlooked.

I never come in here, but now I have my message...

I don't care about your personal lives just dont break up the band! Sure that the slip is sad but nobody can insert in your personal lives.

It's so sad talk about and listen Sonic Youth with ''the end'' possibility hovering around...I think most people confuse the word and meaning ''divorce'' with ''end of the band'' but still make me afraid with this bad possibility.

That's what the magazines talks and bullshit rumors that make me feel sick!! ridiculous speculations!!

HEY SONIC YOUTH PLEASE SAY SOMETHING FOR YOUR LOVERS AND TRUE FANS IS IT NOT TRUE? IS IT? NO!! PLEASE!

Say something before I and most people that loves you have a heart attack.

Não terminem a banda, por favor. Isso é muito triste, muito mesmo.

for real..
I.LOVE.YOU'TH.SONIC.GOLDEN.BLUE.

^ Thinking they peaked in the 80's is hilarious...

They've peaked every decade with multiple mind blowing albums!

Quoted for truth.

They were the best band of three consecutive decades.

Theyve had 5 Sonic Peaks (depending on where you count your "eras", most of these come at the "End" of what i consider one particular era of the band)

Sonic Peak 1 - Bad Moon Rising. A high concept low culture Stooges tribute album

Sonic Peak 2 - Daydream Nation. It was annoying finding out what Teenage Riot was about, but somehow the subject matter made it more entertaining the more i thought about it

Sonic Peak 3 - Goo. Several trendy bastards wore the Tshirt. I didnt but i owned the mug, the poster and the fucking CD too. Cunts

Sonic Peak 4 - A Thousand Leaves. Like it was written in rehab, and asylum, a maternity ward, and an abandoned town in the middle of winter. Hoarfrost is the most beautiful song they have ever done, and one of the most beautiful ever done by anyone

Sonic Peak 5 - Murray Street/Sonic Nurse. Your city gets attacked, your country goes haywire, you are the elder statesmen of indie who saw yourselves through the Reagan years and commercial success unscathed. how do you respond? You make everyone think Murray Street is accessible (only if they never listen beyond song 1 and 2) then you do Nurse, with I love You Golden Blue, which is the second most beautiful song youve ever done.

Some nice peaks there

let's get real here. 'evol', 'sister' and 'daydream nation' are all perfect and forward thinking. their other material, while great, wasn't.

True, but they still released quality records after that, so them breaking up is like losing a trusted friend. Yeah SY do a lot of things that annoy me on their albums, but at least they still had their moments and aside from a few records I can't stand from them, they were always an enjoyable listen. Doesn't matter if they'll ever "peak" again, I think, since people aren't listening to them thinking they'll top Sister or DDN or anything like that. They listen for the band releasing new music in general.

Yeah, i just feel BMR encapsulates the early period best, whereas EVOL is the start of the sound that led them to Daydream Nation. I love Evol, first SY album i really loved actually, i just dont see it as being a "peak" in terms of how it fits in to their body of work
