Best alternative rockers ever, since they get Hardcore, post-punk, classic rock etc.. in just one album: Daydream Nation
It's rare you can say a band is a contender for best band of the decade for three (consecutive) decades . Sonic Youth is one of those bands. Sonic Youth stand beside Pavement, The Replacements, Fugazi, and The Velvet Underground as the best American bands ever.
Daydream Nation !
junodog4Their influence can be heard throughout the 90s... So many Sonic Youth copycats. At the time, they were truly groundbreaking. Their use of noise was constructive, rather than taking away from the music. I never grow tired of Thurston Moore - sometimes I'm not in the mood for Kim Gordon. After Dirty there isn't much that grabs me. Regardless, these guys are great.
One of the all time greats without a doubt
One of very few products of the 80's that I can tolerate.
cartokenmaybe the greatest rock band ever ! in the top 3 for sure !
Daydream Nation and The Diamond Sea would be enough to select these guys of one of the all time greats. But honestly, SIster, EVOL, Bad Moon Rising and even the recent Rather Ripped... Just kind of impressive.
there are some tracks on "Rather Ripped" that's far better than "providence"...
