NOTES

  • 2008 was a wonderful year for fans of the SYR series, with the vinyl-only SYR7 being followed almost immediately by the CD-only SYR8. SYR8 contains the band's set from July 1st, 2005 at the Roskilde Festival in Denmark. The day before they had played a proper set supporting Sonic Nurse, but for this performance they chose to present the 'Other Side of Sonic Youth', enlisting Mats Gustaffson on saxophone and Masami Akita (aka Merzbow) on laptop to provide a skull-melting solid hour of unbelievably intense improvisational noise. They split the hour into 5-minute intervals as follows:

  • Kim/Steve start
  • Thurston joins
  • Lee joins
  • Jim joins
  • Mats joins
  • Merzbow joins
  • Kim leaves
  • Steve leaves
  • Thurston leaves
  • Lee leaves
  • Mats leaves
  • Merzbow finishes

  • Black Sabbath performed immediately afterwards.

  • Colour = Pear?! Mustard?!
  • Language = Danish
