September 30, 2009

Filter Magazine are currently running a scavenger hunt contest type of thing where one reader can win a Fender guitar signed by Thurston or Lee.

Also, about the ATP film Moshe posted about earlier � it doesn't have that much SY footage in it that you couldn't find on Youtube. However, you should go and see the film as it is pretty damn awesome.

Sonic Youth, initially comprising of guitarist / vocalists Thurston Moore and Lee Ranaldo, guitarist / bassist / vocalist Kim Gordon and drummer Richard Edson, were formed in New York City in 1981. A product of the No-Wave music scene of the late 1970s, the group had their roots in abrasive, experimental music, with Moore and Ranaldo having previously worked with the experimental composer Glenn Branca. The band were joined in 1985 by drummer Steve Shelley, and have now recorded 14 albums together, as well as many side and solo projects. Their work has been consistently challenging and innovative, and they are widely regarded as one of the most intriguing and influential bands of their time.
