Sonic Youth, amerikanskt rock / undergroundband, bildat 1981 i New York, USA.

Bandets originalmedlemmar var Thurston Moore, Kim Gordon, Ann DeMarinis och Richard Edson.

Innan deras debutalbum släpptes, Sonic Youth, byttes Ann mot Lee Ranaldo. Efter det första albumet har flera medlemmar hoppat av och på, speciellt trummisen har bytts ut flera gånger. Men från och med 1985 och framåt har Steve Shelley spelat trummor. Även om det är svårt att klassificera ett band som detta så kallas deras musik oftast för ”noise rock” eller ”art rock”, för de gitarrljud de framkallar. Sonic Youth har varit på turné med bland annat Nirvana.

Sonic Youth experimenterar med ljud, ungefär som Velvet Underground och Glenn Branca gjorde på sin tid. De är också inspirerade av The Stooges hårda garagerock. Sonic Youth är kända för sin speciella ljudbild, som de skapar genom att använda olika ovanliga verktyg med sina gitarrer, t ex skruvmejslar.

On CIS: I'm not trying to sound elitist (I never do try to, even if i come off that way), does anyone else think that Sonic Death could be even better than Confusion Is Sex? It's less compromising and more nasty and murky, which are elements the very early Sonic Youth were all about. I haven't listened to Sonic Death in ages, I need to dig that out, as well.

Funnily enough I find The Diamond Sea to be the least interesting song on the album.

Panty Lies, I find irritating. Junkie's Promise I find somewhat mean-spirited, even if the music itself is OK (Sonic Youth should never, ever be mean-spirited -- it's not what this band is about). I even find Little Trouble Girl annoying, but Kim Deal irritates me, a tad. I think it just comes down to personal taste, perhaps, rather than Washing Machine being a bad record. Since it seems so popular. But I do wonder if people would rate it so highly if it didn't feature the epic closer of TDS.

I really like washing machine so far, especially the diamond sea. What songs do you find irritating, besides no queens blues?

I've been listening to Washing Machine since it came out, so it's not that. The Diamond Sea is one of the most important songs they wrote in the 90's. It's gorgeous, and it's ambitious -- I just don't listen to it that much. The title track is fun, and Saucer-Like is sexy, but likewise, I don't listen to them much either. For some reason, the record isn't one that I feel compelled to listen to. That doesn't mean I think it's bad. However, I do believe it's overrated by the fanbase. It has too many irritating songs to be a great record. The importance of that album can't be understated, however. It was around the time that they were getting disillusioned with Geffen (and realising that being on a major doesn't necessarily equal stardom, or promotion), and also around the time of Cobain's death -- and he took the world's interest in noisy, clever guitar alt rock with him. Strange time, important time. Let's just thank Christ they didn't change their bandname to 'Washing Machine.'

Bad Moon Rising never really grew on me, I loved it intensely from my very first listen. [1000]

They have to grow on you... For me, it started with 'Bull in the heather' back in the 90's...

To those complaining about Washing Machine, give the closer track another listen...it's reason enough to love the album!

I can't listen to Bad Moon Rising in full...ever. I enjoy music that's less structured but the cuts on that disc are beyond. It's probably my least favorite record. Confusion Is Sex is complete opposite and classic record.
