It's true....he's a Sith.

Personally, I think this thread is pretty clever manipulation on AssBlaster's part. Some may call it trolling, but whatever it is, it's funny.

Anyway, about h8kurdt's post: music has its roots in religion. Almost every aspect of western music has its origins in church music. Some of the greatest musical works of the western world were directly influenced by religion . AssBlaster is right about Bach - I listen to the St. Matthew Passion even though I don't believe in Jesus. And I like Messiaen too, and I'm not Catholic. This is really lame of me to go on at such length about some old post that was probably made as a joke anyway, but I also have to address your (h8kurdt's) signature. It was inevitable since I'm a music theorist.

You must like Debussy a lot, so you know that his music is very spiritual and apparently uncalculated (this is disputable). I like the quote because the "music theory" that Debussy was refering to (or his translator...where is that quote from anyway?) was indeed pretty shitty. Theorists had a lot of ridiculous ideas that were pretty unmusical and wacky back then and they often just added programmatic little stories to instrumental pieces and passed it off as "analysis". Music theory today is as similar to music theory back then as modern psychology is to Freud - owes a lot to it while dismissing it. But what a lot of people think of as "theory" today is just rudiments of music. Debussy benefitied A LOT for traditional "theory" studies such as harmony and counterpoint and form. What he didn't like was understandably pretty stupid, but if you think his quote is reaffirming the idea that learning scales and key signatures is pointless, well I think you're missing something. There is a quote from Hindemith that you would love - he's one of the most important theorists and composers of the 20th century, but he despised "theory". I'll try to find the quote - he goes on about how theorists are just musicians that couldn't cut it as performers or composers and there's a lot of truth in what he's saying. I don't know what he'd think about being considered such an important theorist today...I'll shut up now.

it seems to me that any successful, self-respecting satanist would have headlined at W's first inaugural ball....

maybe it's just the opposite man, maybe there actually christian rock and all there songs have hidden messages like "love jesus" and "praise the lord" i think that would be a hell of a lot scarier then if they did have relations with the princess of darkness

"Are Sonic Youth satanists?"

This is the dumbest question I've heard in quite some time. No, they are not satanists! Thurston grew up christian as did Lee (catholic). Don't know about the rest of the band, but Im sure they were brought up with some form of Judeao-Christian religious stuff. Thurston has a roman cross tatooed on his left arm, and I dont think it's out of sarcasm. I'm sure that they don't always agree with the bullshit that religious people pull off through the Church and in the name of God (SY are liberals, after all), but I can't see them ever worshiping anything as stupid as Satan. Satan doesn't exist. And God probably doesn't either.

kingcoffee · 05.27.2006, 03:26 PM

P.S. I absolutely LOVE the Baby Jesus butt plug idea. Where can I get one for my preist?

Shannon · 05.28.2006, 03:19 AM

In all seriousness: I read somewhere that Thurston was brought up Catholic but is now an atheist.

punknomuerto · 05.28.2006, 05:36 AM

definitive

alyasa · 05.28.2006, 05:40 AM

No, but I am.

punknomuerto · 05.28.2006, 05:58 AM

we only come out at night, like the smashing pumpkin song,
i think sonic youth are humans that are tending more towards nature
the nature of electronics, the electric guitarr buzzing simpnonically,
calling god

and they play the scene of death,
