Alternative video for Teenage Riot, help me.

05.28.2007, 04:41 PM

I spent a lot of time watching the youth round where I live, and they are mainly black and asian, and mostly asian, and I also spent time eavesdropping on conversations and trying to make friends, whenever it was possible. I think this song in particular needs a video that is more suitable to it. I have, by no means, access to my video camera as a junkie I knew stole it on the last visit home, but if anyone has got ideas, I'd be happy to co-ordinate. Chris, If you are reading this, you are more than welcome to help out.

In an interview from '89,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=br--bsYaLKI
Kim talks a bit about the video. She's asked about mtv banning Death Valley '69 and relates how mtv rejected Teen Age Riot initially based solely on the title. So she talks about how mtv expected the video to be about protesting and have footage of actual riots haha (like pork wants to also...he made a post the other day about how he likes to watch riot footage)...anyway, Kim expresses shock at this, since, as she relates, they had set out to do a more conventional video and just show clips featuring their heroes. Sonic Youth were forced to remove one brief flash featuring the words "Legalize Pot" for the mtv version.

These (the one above too) are a couple of CHOUT's videos. Part 2 with Thurston is at
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5aVjzQnOFFo

There's a few alternate diy Sonic Youth-related videos over at that wacky tube place. I noticed a couple for some Thurston solo the other day and there's even one with the first five minutes of Sonic Death as its audio.
