I see comments like this under every great band. I have suspicion, that they are often the same one guy, he jump from one song to the other and say: "Hey, the Siouxiee and the Banshees must be the greatest band of all!". And then he play some Sonic Youth, and he writes: "Sonic Youth, hell yeah, the greatest band in all generations!". Then he plays some Chopin, and he writes: "Music today is not like it was in the past...how can you compare Shakira to Beethoven?". ;) Well, I do exactly the same...

I was scared off years ago by receiving the entire collection of their discs all in one go and so the pile was just too high for me to get into properly. But I watched the year punk broke and I've fallen in love. Will have to find all of the cds

logan zepeda Yes, it's a common word, but it also happens to be the title of the major Nirvana album, and Sonic Youth were very close with Nirvana. Obviously Sonic Youth putting out a song entitled "Nevermind" is going to have some connection to Nirvana. Sonic Youth would have to be a hopefully stupid bunch of idiots if they didn't think of the connection. I don't think they're that stupid.

@noesunyoutuber7680 3 жыл бұрын

I kinda doubt it, just because Sonic Youth were early Nirvana supporters and never really demonstrated the resentment some bands of that era felt towards them (particularly the Melvins come to mind). If it's a reference to Nirvana at all, it's more likely that it's about their rise to stardom and the toll that took (which Kurt himself wrote a lot about) than a dig at the band themselves.

This Video pretty much sums up this era of Sonic Youth perfectly: the aural & visual equivalent of a really bland & dry salad washed down with a soda water. Murray Street was a shining light that gave me hope for them again, and by Nurse they were solidly back on track. They should have skipped this whole album and just released ‘Renegade Princess b/w NYC Ghosts & Flowers (the song) as a a 1 off 7” single. Those were the only 2 redeemable songs. The LP as a whole was trash

@sizzlemeat 4 жыл бұрын

I KIND OF take it back now (in regards to this song at least). I’m coming down off of shrooms and Kim’s vocals, the screeching guitars and churning bass in the 2nd half of this song make it a new favorite for me. Weird how that took 20 years to sink in. Is it the shrooms? IDEK. But I could still do without the tacky visual of the granola hipster couple cuddling at the rocking chair tho. Ew.
