That is wrong.
Not a single sonic youth album has sold GOLD status in US (500 thousand opr more)
EJST&NS and Dirty are their highest sellers, and to this day they have yet to crack the 400 thousand mark.
and that counts people buying the albums several times.
sonic youth in ROCK terms is still underground. They are not obscure.
wolf eyes, animal colective, lightning bolt, etc are OBSCURE as all fuck to much "alternative music fans" and certainly completely UNKnOWN to mainstream music fans.
