New release from Sonic Youth

Sonic Youth just released Live in Torino 1987. Here’s what they say about it:

"Our Sister lp was released on June 1st and by June 4th we were on tour and somehow joined by hero Iggy Pop for our London Town & Country encore. This show a few weeks later, was recorded nearly halfway through our Summer tour of Europe on June 21, 1987 and our only Italian concert of 1987's journey. Italy would grow to be one of our favorite places to visit and it still is to this day.

Judging by Bandcamp's "selling right now" feed, about 80 billion people have bought it.

Yes I've downloaded it. It's a guitar and drums vocal track lyrics by Radio Radieux.

We've been through this! According to Thurston, Radieux Radio ("radieux" means "radiant" in French) is an artist/poet with whom he works, someone who doesn't do social media,

 

 

 

. It's BULLCRAP. It's either Eva Prinz, or T and Prinz, the way Tom Verlaine and Richard Hell invented the character Theresa Stern back in the day. But "back in the day" doesn't translate well to our age, and the whole Radieux Radio shit has been going on for way too long and needs to GO.

8,695 people, to be precise.

2010's Disappears + White/Light + Steve Shelley's "Salem" has been added to Bandcamp:

The flipside of the original 7" included two tracks by JBe; only the D W/L SS side is available to download. Neat-o still, as that record didn't come with a download code.

The Hallogallo 2010 7" has also (just?) been added:

New release from Sonic Youth

Sonic Youth just released Rarities 3, check it out here.

Here's what they say about it:

"Volume 3 of Sonic Youth's Rarities series features unreleased and hard-to-find studio recordings, mostly instrumental. This collection spans from the group's first Peel session - recorded remotely from NYC - to demos and rehearsals for our final record, The Eternal. Sonic Youth Archive also features a growing number of physical LPs and CDs including Daydream Nation 2xlps and CDs."

You can read Steve Shelley's comments on each track following the link above, but I want to quote a colorful bit:

Star Power (Acoustic '09)

Recorded at Jackpot Studios, (a fun, beautiful and efficient studio to record in) in Portland, OR while on tour in the USA in 2009. We recorded this new version of Evol's Star Power to mime to for our upcoming filming and appearance on the TV show Gossip Girl. I had never seen a Gossip Girl episode before and while watching for our performance on the show I was horrified to learn that the program was 60 minutes long and our appearance was in the second half of the program.

[greenlight]

SY rarities 3? looks interesting. wow. can not wait to check it out!

edit

I just red the Steve´s comments for each track, and I kind of heard everything, but still..nice.
