Reissue Detalis
February 12, 2006

Here is some more info from Steve:
"'Sonic Youth' will be a gatefold 2xLP package with all the bonuses from the Geffen CD.
Ciccone Youth's 'The Whitey Album' CD + LP both include a bonus cut of MacBeth (alt. mix) - this track was a hidden bonus cut on the original Geffen re-issue of this record.
The 'Psychic Hearts' 2xLP edition will have an entire lp side of extra tracks not on the Geffen CD.
All 3 re-issues were re-mastered to present the records as close to the sound of the original analog tapes as possible".

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.
