What was the first sonic youth song you listened to? - Page 4

gmku · 09.11.2006, 09:41 AM

Dirty Boots, I think. That or Kool Thing. But I remember thinking Dirty Boots was about the coolest thing I'd ever heard, and I fell madly in love with that grunge chic in the video.

First song I heard was live but I don't know what it was.

On record: Intro/Brave Men Run

Dropped the needle on EVOL,Tom Violence.I was hooked....

I bougth Goo, without having heard anything by them. So Dirty Boots was the first.

Well, I don't know if it was the first song that I heard by them, but the first song that definitely made me sit up and take notice was their cover of "Superstar." At first I thought that only Thurston fronted the band, but then upon further investigation I heard a couple Kim and Lee songs. They weren't a band that I fell hard for immediately however. I can honestly say I had never heard anyone like them before, and I was no stranger to alt rock. Now, I can't get enough of them. I love all of their stuff from the debut EP to Sonic Nurse, with Washing Machine being my fave album. Rather Ripped is ok too I guess.

the first Sonic Youth song i ever listened to was Teenage Riot.

I bought 'Screaming fields of sonic love' when i was 13 and used to listen to
Teenage Riot
Candle
Cotton Crown
Star Power
over and over and over and over again, and they are still my favourite sonic youth songs ever!

Dirty Boots

cagedbird · 09.12.2006, 04:56 PM

100% Was this song popular in those days? I mean a hit for Mtv? I loved the skateboarding scenes because these guys were playing with long lanky objects all over outdoor public places. But I don't think it was a big hit. Except around here.
