How would you like your SYR 9?
 

What is your choice?

1) Sonic Youth/Brigitte Fontaine CD/DVD
Fontaine is on a new label so perhaps it will be possible now...

2) Sonic Youth/Takehisa Kosugi studio session (1999)

3) Sonic Youth Filmworks box set
(Released stuff like Made in U.S.A. and Demonlover and unreleased stuff like Things behind the sun and Nudist Guerrilla).

4) Sonic Youth/Mats Gustafson/Michel Doneda/Jean-Marc Monterra (2007)

Something else?

Sonic Youth w/ Big Youth:
SRY9: Big Sonic Youth, Jah?

In Jamacian

i would like some syr 1 and 2 related jam that would be recent

I'd prefer SYR9 to be the brigitte fontaine/zareski collaboration cd/dvd or LP/dvd. language braille

SYR10 would be the Soundtrack box for sure.

SYR11 a new studio recording

stirred, not shaken

Filmworks - on vinyl

venetian snares doing sonic youth remixes

film

with fries

hmm, hard to choose. paris one was great. pity that Lee had problems with his guitar. it was great anyway. soundtrack boxet should be released anyway no? any unheard studio session sounds great to me. would be pity not to release it.

I'd say that SY / Takehisa Kosugi session

Medium Rare Please.

Given anything I want, I'd love for them to do something along the lines of SYR 3 with a major guest, preferably focused on guitar instrumentals. Hell, I'd be happy if it was O' Rourke again. For somebody different, how about Mayo Thompson or Sir Richard Bishop. But I'd want it fresh and not a recording they made years ago.

Something with a lot of guitars, a lot of noises, and some improv.

I am not telling them what to do, but I hear oman has a hot music scene..

syr 9 should be a thurston and kim sex tape released only on laser disc.

i'd like mine on vinyl only

Stop reminding me that I need a record player.

Siouxsie and Budgie with SY and rourke doing the brds or Neil Young as guest

sonic youth jamming with greg ginn. chuck dukowski and mike watt.

that's an idea right there!

definitely a studio session with big youth, now that it's been mentioned anything else will be a dissapointment

Fontaine is signed now on Universal. I don't know if it improves the chances to see that release or not.

I voted for the soundtracks box but if it syr9 is going to be something new I wish they would collaborate with Otomo Yoshide, Borbetomagus or Brotzmann.

The odds of them ever being in the same room with Ginn unless it's a courtroom are about as good as running into Ian Mackaye in the bar at a Black Angus.

why not with their old friend and "teacher" Glenn Branca??!!
SYR9:
"radioactive melodrama in the nuclear sonic mass"
(ok every word is a title from symphony nº 2)

syr 9 should be a thurston and kim sex tape released only on laser disc

With a required code that is impossible to crack...

what's their beef with Ginn?

You're no fun.

Sonic Youth had to sue SST to win the rights to their albums when they separated with the label over lack of royalties payments. This is a common story with bands who were on SST.

Sy with Don Lett and Tony Bennett. really. just float that one .

i wish they'd make a real record.

what the F is NUDIST GUERILLA, Moshe?

AND sub-question, did THE HEART IS DECEITFUL feature a NEW film score by SY, or just recycled stuff?

Cantankeros, they are working on a new record!
noisereduction, Nudist Guerilla is a film by Chris Habib that SY scored.

I think a Sonic Youth Unplugged album would be hot.

yeah that was funny. lee throwing a drumstick on the soundengineer.
i think the problem was that he couldnt hear his own instrument tho.
he only had problems with his guitar during the 'normal' gig..

Sonic Youth with Kenny Rogers: Outlandish sounds in (falseified) country and western.

well, he threw it on their guitar tech. and I don't know why, but I think it was during their impro, coz I remember he took them little bells after he put guitar down.

The same as I wanted SYR7 to be:

new songs or old songs?

I agree. I would love to hear some Branca+SY CD with lot of new tunes. :)
