God Damn! I Love Sonic Youth!

screamingskull · 12.21.2007, 05:28 PM

I go through phases of listening to nothing but sonic youth, then not listening to them for a few months. I am now back in a Sonic Youth phase and it is amazing! They have been my favourite band since i was 13, and i am still amazed at how fucking great they are!!!!!! I come on here mostly because of the nice people here, i forget that it is a SONIC YOUTH message board sometimes.

Sonic Youth I Love You!

Listened to this about 18 times yesterday.

every time i look at my life i think of you
every time i look at you i wonder, what to do
so lets go, go away, go
lets go, i don't want to stay any longer
god knows that you're my brother
got a funny idea there is no other
you know we have to make it really last
have to make it happen, really fast
so lets go, go away, go
lets go, i don't want to stay any longer
if we could just know where we come from
maybe we could figure out something to do
all i know now is we're together and something tells me we might live forever
so lets go, go away, go
lets go, i don't want to stay any longer
every time i look at you i wonder what to do
every time i look at you i wonder what to do
every time i look at you i wonder what to do
every time i look at you i wonder what to do
every time i look at you i wonder what to do
every time i look at you i wonder what to do
every time i look at you i wonder what to do
every time i look at you i wonder what to do
every time i look at you i wonder what to do
every time i look at you i wonder what to do

(P.S) They make almost everything else sound like shit.

screamingskull · 12.21.2007, 05:32 PM

Mark Linkous is always crying.

Rob Instigator · 12.21.2007, 05:32 PM

yes. I am going back into a heavy sonic youth kick now. SONIC LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

screamingskull · 12.21.2007, 05:33 PM

I have not listened to ANYTHING by sonic youth i about 5 months, and last night i did, and it just hit me!

Rob Instigator · 12.21.2007, 05:35 PM

that happens with me and my favorite bands.

Sonic Youth
beatles
Phish
Butthole Surfers
Dinosaur Jr

I leave them behind for months and listen to other stuff then I try them again and once again I am awestruck by the sheer genius of it all.

screamingskull · 12.21.2007, 05:36 PM

that was it, i was awestruck! THEY ARE JUST SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!

m1rr0r dash · 12.21.2007, 05:39 PM

ditto...

i didn't discover them until i was 18, but that was at a show in at CBGB's so i don't mind that i didn't get into them as a teenager. i didn't start listening to them heavily until i was 20. that was the last time i saw free kitten. i heard rumors they had a new album and might play... anybody heard anything?

Derek · 12.21.2007, 05:41 PM

I hate Sonic Youth.

screamingskull · 12.21.2007, 05:42 PM

If you are being sarcastic then please don't do that in this thread
If you are being sincere then why the fuck are you here?

gmku · 12.21.2007, 05:43 PM

I find that too. It's almost better not to listen to your favorite bands for a few or several months. You appreciate them even more when you return to them.

To express to this community my utter hatred. I bought all their studio albums, listened to each about 100 times and hated it!

Yes, I'm just messing.

gmku · 12.21.2007, 05:44 PM

Of course, almost every band I have records of is my favorite band.

m1rr0r dash · 12.21.2007, 05:50 PM

i do that also.... i mostly just listen to my ipod on shuffle, but then i have one playlist with just about everything thurston and kim have released (you can never hunt down everything) and some of lee's stuff and some free noise jams with jim and nels. sometimes thats the only thing on my ipod. other times i don't listen to them for weeks.

speaking of which, i haven't eaten all day, and i'm going to go put a big powl of pho in my belly.

Derek · 12.21.2007, 05:50 PM
