Velvets + Grateful Dead + Slits + Can + Floyd + Television + Branca + Fall + PIL = Good Sonic Youth
Bratmobile + Pavement = Poo Sonic Youth |

Heart- their song 'barracuda' is a major influence on 'drunken butterfly'. Kiss are sampled in 'Master-Dik'. These are the obvious ones, I'm sure he listens to a lot more, but I have been taken ill and I can't type much. Thurston also really likes Sparks. |

Patti Smith Gang of four Joy Division Led Zeppelin (Thurston and Steve, Kim doesn't like them however - probably because of their sexism) Grateful Dead (Lee) Miles Davis, John Coltrane, free jazz in general The Beach Boys The Beatles REM Serge Gainsbourg Brigitte Fontaine Minor threat Jimi Hendrix The Ramones Fairport Convention David Bowie |
