Title: THIS is sonic youth
Review: there are two songs on here that are monster songs. first we have freezer burn/i wanna be your dog (i wanna..dog is a stooges song, fyi). freezer burn is this feedback/i dont know what that sounds so brilliant. quiet and chilling it drifts for awhile until dog kicks in. the riff explodes out of nowhere. what genius!!!!!the second song here is brother james, which is on the kill your idols ep. the brilliant guitars over the steady drumbeat. now i was never a big fan of kim gordon. she is ok but not the greatest singer in the world. this is one of her better tunes especialy with the climax.the other songs here are good. this is a really experimental style of music. music that really challenges the status quo and drifts way out there for those of us who wont let mtv (mindless television) dictate what good music is. it is a real shame this band has not gotten more credit for destroying music and rebuiling it with respect and credibility.
Is the review positive or negative?
