they kept showing this one shot with Lee in the background concentrating soooo hard on acoustic skronk while they were talking about some political shit. that's about all I got out of the hour of television

tasteinmen 10.13.2009 11:35 AM

i just watched it, the episode name dropped Sonic Youth a lot, the acoustic version of starpower was awesome! The song was playing over a lot of eventful moments at the end of the episode and set the mood very well! Kim wed Lily and Rufus which was funny...

Moshe 10.13.2009 12:22 PM

watch it here:

christ, whoever wrote that is a real douchenozzle, and an unfunny one at that.

great version, though. shame i have to suffer through all these shmucks to hear it. looks like i'll have to buy it.

SuperCreep 10.13.2009 12:42 PM

oh, and thanks, moshe!

DanielCarlson 10.13.2009 02:21 PM

Great performance, too bad that you don't see them much but instead some stupid dorks talking shit. But I guess that wasn't very unexpected.

nicfit 10.13.2009 02:24 PM

dunno nothin' about the show, but the song (I mean the WAV, not sure what you can hear on the show) is AMAZING....love love love love it.
Dled the episode to have a look at the whole thing.
Shall I skip everything till I spot the guys or is it kinda fun to watch, especially considering I never watched an episode in my whole life? I remember I used to have fun making up stories when I watched a single episode of a show I never watched.
ha ha I sound insane.
She was significant.

Just watch the video in there, it doesn't seem to be a series worth wasting yr time at. ;)

nicfit 10.13.2009 02:44 PM

yeh, seems the most reasonable thing to do after all...
p.s. the link in your post is broken, I guess you copied the "compressed" one from moshe's post :D, the full one is this (just in case someone hops in in this page and doesn't feel like browsing back):

Ooops, thanks! :)

nice subtle hint for future cameos ;)

tasteinmen 10.13.2009 03:09 PM

i wonder if people who downloaded starpower on itunes after watching the show are completely shocked by what they hear...

I hope so. That would be even more awsome.

SonicBebs 10.13.2009 03:36 PM

thats the first time i'd seen that. sounded fantastic except for all the dickheads talking over it.

Sonic Youth definatly need to do an acoustic album. would be so good

icybluejeans 10.13.2009 03:59 PM

Just watched it, sounds so fucking good. I want more acoustic sy!

SonicBebs 10.13.2009 04:04 PM

there's an acoustic youtube of antenna in the sonic sharing section

tesla69 10.13.2009 04:48 PM

I always thought the acoustic versions just water down and weaken good hard rock. This show is so fucking repulsive. Pure slave state entertainment.

How is it that I agree with both of you??

The Soup Nazi 10.13.2009 06:55 PM

Just got this baby myself, and all I wanna say is ROCK GODS BE PRAISED, FINALLY A LOSSLESS FILE. I mean, the BEGN tunes were lossless too, I know, but this is the first time I happen upon a store selling lossless digital music.

In the immortal words of Rod Blagojevich, "I've got this thing and it's fuckin' golden, and I'm not givin' it up for fuckin' nuthin'!"

Ha ha.

I really really like this version. Dare I say an improvement upon the original?

The clip I saw was funny. It really should have been Thurston pronouncing them husband and wife, though. Wonder if they tried it that way, but it took too many takes.

Sonic Youth has done so little sentimental stuff (besides playing Daydream Nation)... I wish they would do something like an acoustic album of their old classics. It'd be so great!

greedrex 10.14.2009 06:22 AM

sounds really nice. Didn't find it on Itunes today though. When is this coming out?

notyourfiend 10.14.2009 08:05 AM

stupid dialogue got in the way of my listening pleasure.

good thing i downloaded the single

Rupert 'Stiles' Stilinski 10.14.2009 08:18 AM

Anyone agree this version is better than the original, or is that sonik blasphemy?

nicfit 10.14.2009 08:27 AM

I think they're, like, on the same level...I'm too attached to the "original" sound to claim this one is better, but it sure is up there with it.
Does this make sense?
With T+L showcasing a bunch of Eternal stuff on radio with acoustic guitars and this I'm kinda intrigued to see where they'll take things next.
