Just picked up Wire magazine with the Sonic Youth interview. (I don't normally buy this mag but I had store credit to burn up...). Thurston says they wanted to make a pop record like Blondie did with Parallel Lines, only, unlike Blondie, they wanted to do it right.
The more I listen the more I pick up on noise elements they sort of hide beind the pop clean-ness. That's what makes the album interesting for me. It has layers.
