given that any album with songs as good and radical as Tom Violence and Expressway would be the peak of most any other band's career.

Any bets as to how long it takes before we all look back at our posts in this thread in embarrassment for our cluelessness?

Is this the end of Sonic Youth?
In an interview Lee Ranaldo did when he was in Belgium a couple of weeks ago, he said about the Simon Werner soundtrack: "It's technically our last album at this point." Then he seems to realise that "last" is a somewhat strange word choice, and he corrects himself: "Our most recent album I guess I would say." This is probably seeing something that isn't there, but I remember I already thought of it as a bit strange when I saw the interview the first time. You can see Lee's quote at 2:05 on YouTube: watch?v=g6Gs1N2ao5U |

The Eternal is a fitting title for their supposedly "last album"..
the album itself?.. meh. i think they can end on a better note |

i saw them tour for the eternal and thought they were great. i hope they dont break up, i hope they do at least one more album, if not i think the eternal is a fitting end to a long noise fueled career. so sad

CIS is great, but its not a peak. Compared to almost anything else from the time, its a peak, but the reason we love SY is their standards are that much higher.

I don't think we should worry. I have a feeling they separated years ago but didn't tell us, except in song. Many couples separate and still make music. John Doe and Exene of X. Debbie Harry and Chris Stein of Blondie. The White Stripes.

this theorizing makes little sense if you remember that Thurston has written most of Kim's lyrics for the past decade.
