After a solid twenty-three years of explosive creativity Sonic Youth throws down what may be their heaviest classic since their own genre-breaking Daydream Nation in 1988.
Sonic Nurse is the nineteenth long player by the New York City supernova, together since 1981.
Check out the first track, ‘Pattern Recognition’, and hear Kim Gordon take Justin Timberlake’s hand and stick it in a tendon-shredding meat grinder.
Hear Sonic Youth gay marriage the hell out of religious zealot war pigs Cheney, Rumsfeld, Bush and Ashcroft with the meditative ‘Peace Attack’.
Imagine Bare Trees-era Fleetwood Mac jamming with Jealous Again-era Black Flag on the heart-pounding ‘Unmade Bed’ and ‘I Love You Golden Blue’.
Listen to the core reactor awesomeness of ‘Paper Cup Exit’ as it reduces such legends as Led Zeppelin and Yes to just so much British schoolboy whimpering.
