Sonic Youth, formed in New York City in 1981, is a highly influential band that emerged from the No-Wave music scene. Comprised of Thurston Moore, Lee Ranaldo, Kim Gordon, and Richard Edson initially, they later added drummer Steve Shelley. With their roots in experimental music and collaborations with Glenn Branca, Sonic Youth has consistently pushed boundaries throughout their career.

Over the years, Sonic Youth recorded 15 albums together and embarked on various side and solo projects. Their work is known for its challenging and innovative nature, making them one of the most intriguing bands of their time. The album "Sonic Nurse," featuring Jim O'Rourke's talents alongside the band members', further solidified their reputation.

In 2011, Sonic Youth went on an indefinite hiatus following the separation of Kim Gordon and Thurston Moore after nearly three decades of marriage. Despite this setback, their impact on alternative rock remains undeniable.

Back In Stock

whereas 'dirty' and its predecessors were loud, distorted, and bordering on the fine line between pop and noise, 'experimental jet set, trash and no star' from 1994 did away with the ear-bleeding guitar feedback so often attributed to the group. the group retained its quirky twist on pop/rock song structures, moving even closer to a consistent use of the verse-chorus-verse template. butch vig's clean production makes the album seem clean, when in actuality it is nearly as dirty as the group's preceding effort. songs such as 'starfield road' and the acoustic song 'winner's blues' emanate plenty of raw spontaneity, even with vig's crystal clear production.
