pop is celine dion, people singing standards, people making disposable mass market msuic. adults HATED the beatles, they rocked fOR the YOUTH
SONIC YOUTH
sonic truth
I ahve always thought of sonic youth as my Beatles, opening up their fan's ears and letting them see a wide spectrum of musical language.
sonic youth and beatles are the two greatest musical influences in my sonic life.
