Washing Machine era SY was amazing 🤙💯

And great lyrics

This is the song that made me a fan. I agree that there's definitely something special about it! Thanks for your comment.

I really know that strange feeling of happiness when revisiting some SY songs/performances. It's like finding my inner self over and over. or something like that.

I know I am kind of off topic but does anyone know a good place to watch new tv shows online ?

@Azariah Denver Flixportal :)

@Ahmed Ryan Thank you, I went there and it seems like a nice service :) I appreciate it!!

what do you mean it put you on the right path, man?

"[...] like Jackson Pollock making music" - well written!❤

💜💜

Have been there, awesome

Sonic Youth live, mid-90s, was magical. (I wasn't at that particular concert, but at another one in another german city that year (I guess...)

There are harder things to grasp out there.

Well, although it's unlikely they'll ever reform, never say never. I think it would be up to Kim really. I'd completely understand her not wanting to, but time does tend to give people another perspective on things, so you never know. And at the end of the day, they were together and highly prolific MUCH longer than most bands are, and I think they were all ready to do different things even if what happened hadn't went down. It might sound cliched, but everything has a life cycle and nothing lasts forever. I do miss seeing them live and listening to new SY albums, but I'll always be appreciative for the amazing legacy of work they've left with us.

sonicboy19 No doubt their legacy as legends will stand forever, and no doubt they have one of the most consistently fantastic catalogues of any band to ever exist. I just really wish I could have seen them live. Idk enough details to know if they were ready to move on. Sure they had solo material, but it was my understanding that they had another albums worth of material that they intended to record, but tensions were too great after their final tour. It's just that it was such a fucking senseless way for a band to end. It's one thing if a band isn't releasing good material after so many years, or if band members are dying off, but to end over such a selfish act is absurd. Thurston could have made it better after infidelity. That shit happens. He chose some young cunt over his wife and daughter, though. I know it's old news, but I'm still not over it. I'm getting back on a big Sonic Youth kick again, so it's all coming back and annoying me again. They were a bucket list band for me to see live. Oh well. At any rate, there's still the albums, and I'm rediscovering how incredible Washing Machine and A Thousand Leaves are, which are albums I never listened to back when I first got into them. Idk how I slept on those albums bc I've come to realize now that they're not only the better than their other 90s albums (the only other 90s album by them that I actually love and think is a masterpiece is Goo tbh), and not only are they amongst the very best in the bands catalogue, but they're really some of the best experimental guitar music ever produced in my opinion. Definitely they're most psychedelic work, not including the SYR albums. Great channel btw! Cheers!

Yeah, I hear ya. I was disappointed that it ended the way it did too. But over time I've tried to depersonalize it a bit. Sonic Youth was never defined by Kim & Thurston's relationship, and I think more bands break up as a result of some form of breakdown in relations between its members than for any other reason. From that perspective, this is really no different than the natural course of most bands. Too bad you didn't have the opportunity to catch them live. I was fortunate to see them play 7 times over the years...6 of the 7 were at the same venue but each tour somehow managed to define itself as an entirely unique experience. Glad that at least some of their live moments were captured on video...it doesn't match being at a gig of course, but it's definitely better than nothing! Thanks for the comments and glad you're enjoying the videos!

Muito foda 🎵🎶🎸

yeah check out Warm Frames on soundcloud and bandcamp and they also have a video up on youtube. little band from florida

Amazing song, but you should only play this song if a) You are being ironic b) The relationship is doomed

If my band ever gets the opportunity to play at a wedding we are so playing this. Ironically of course

as someone who saw SY a couple of time live, they were *really* loud.

tinnitus is no joke. protect your ears

as someone who saw Sonic Youth a couple of times in the 90s, they were *really* loud.

He wasn't a fan of rock music ))

​@@antonhaman9402he was into jazz so he'd probably like this, keep in mind the rock music he was talking about was very different
