Four tracks of jagged, reverent post-punk recorded for John Peel. Sonic Youth filters the cynical wit of The Fall through their own wall of Manhattan noise.
May 1990 · Goofin' Records
The sound of two underground worlds colliding. It's the motorik, repetitive drive of Manchester's The Fall reimagined through the dissonant, art-damaged lens of New York's Sonic Youth. This isn't a polished studio effort; it's a raw, immediate capture of a band paying tribute to their heroes by making the songs their own. The guitars are sharp and metallic, lacking the lush textures of Daydream Nation in favor of a punchy, rhythmic aggression.
