Goo by Sonic Youth - Album Reaction/Review

[@p1nh3dlarry72]

It would be cool if you checked out Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven, since the 20th anniversary of it was yesterday

[@aldersleysteven]

All of my favorite albums rely on the guitar sound. I would put about 10 Sonic Youth albums in my top 100 albums list. I love how they throw together a bunch of notes and sounds that don't seem related, but then make it all work together. There are only a handful of bands I would put above them: Modest Mouse, Pavement/Stephen Malkmus, Television, Pixies and maybe Talking Heads. I'd love to see more Sonic Youth reactions or anything from the bands I just mentioned.

[@rodrigoc8179]

HOW DID I MISS THIS! Goos' album cover is absolutely perfect.

[@Bunke09]

Have you listened to Built to Spill? Even if you don't do an album reaction I would still highly recommend a listen. They have 8 great albums to choose from. Their 3rd album Perfect From Now On released in 1997 is one of the best releases of the 90s and of all time in my opinion. I get the impression that if god were real and decided to walk up and talk to me, his voice would sound just like Doug Martsch's guitar.

[@tonywhitburn]

Haha, okay, your description of what god would do convinced me. I'll check it out. Cheers!

[@hammer158]

yesss I love them so much, untethered moon is my absolute favourite, it's so pretty

[@severed_lips]

my favorite album of all time is Keep It Like A Secret

[@leo8566]

@@tonywhitburn maan you should really go back on this! you’ll love it.

[@Taboot761]

Always loved your reactions and your interpretations of the music you listen to. Would love to see you react to Welcome to Sky Valley from Kyuss. They play heavy grooves that can shake builds yet be very hypnotic as well. Highly recommended.

[@Nimno74]

The last half of Mote is just a hypnotic distortion dream. ❤

[@encyclical]

I love how you review albums. Thanks for this!

[@thomwav]

"THIS band lets their Kim sing!"

[@remarc69]

I bought this album straight outta school, it blew my mind...

[@ianmccullough3846]

I got to see them on tour for this album in Portland, OR. The opening bands were Stone Temple Pilots and Nirvana.

[@ianmccullough3846]

Tunic is about Karen Carpenter who died of anorexia. The lines about her "disappearing" are literal.

[@ianmccullough3846]

@ STP only played like 4 songs and I didn't know them at the time. They were the opener and the crowd was still arriving when they went on. But you're right - Nirvana was touring for Bleach and SY was touring for Goo. It was and amazing show and the best SY show I've seen (out of three). Best Nirvana show was a little later - Treepeople, Nirvana, Dinosaur Jr. - every band was great that night.

[@themadcow71]

Great reaction brother! This and Dirt are the SY albums I listen to the most.

[@tonywhitburn]

Thanks, Dan. Great to see you around. Cheers!

[@rosssharphandlegoeshere]

those are my favorites too

[@daviliea7703]

Please do a reaction to Dirty! Love the videos!

[@bugman7077]

I wish more people reacted to music like you

[@barrington6151]

great reaction as always! i'd love to see a reaction to strawberry jam by animal collective, or person pitch by panda bear!

[@lukerosenbrock5630]

It has been interesting to listen to the individual members albums since the breakup, it really has taught me what each member brought to the song writing table. Lee, Thurston and Kim all have unique styles and from listening to their solo stuff I've found that as Sonic Youth those songs in each of their style is now apparent. Worth checking out. I'd love to see a comparison reaction of their solo works.

[@junkytelephonewire9634]

this is a really good reaction, i think you'd like the atmosphere of their second album bad moon rising.

[@rogercervantes158]

The “rapper” on Kool Thing is Chuck D from Public Enemy!

[@gerardoaguilar4579]

I slept on sonic youth I’ve known of them since high school .. but lately I can’t stop listening to them I am hooked

[@oogaftw]

Consider this my plea for you to do The Sophtware Slump by Grandaddy.

[@mb_drums2341]

Tony, you have to react to Warpaint ! It's my favorite band, I would recommend their self-titled album, I think it's a great starting point.

[@mintyapricot]

I would love to see this too!

[@Onche518]

Hey I recommend you the french post hardcore song Laissez vivre les squelettes by Daitro and the full album japanese noise rock/metal Pink by Boris. I just thought it would be cool if you'd check out bands from outside of the US/UK

[@sorenasikainen5352]

Pink is a great choice

[@ps.nd9]

Siamese dream pls

[@WillStephen1977]

My first introduction to you was when you did a Vic Chesnutt reaction cuz I just discovered him recently but then I saw all the other cool music you react to so that's what's up especially Sonic youth right on

[@Nimno74]

Scooter and Jinx always reminded me of wolves howling at the moon.

[@DeathAnn80]

Love this album, it's fun to listen with you!

[@sant.2406]

Great review! 🤟

[@holypaper]

One of the few albums where the back half slays the front half

[@endymion7850]

are you gonne follow up on the smashing pumpkins too??

[@diego9600]

React to the new record Ultra Mono by IDLES. Please!

[@antikamniacalendar5765]

hell yeah i love this album

[@mrns87]

You should try 11:11 by come

[@Plsticc]

I love this band and this is the album that introduce me to them. Can you react to Hidden by These New Puritans? That album sounds like nothing i've heard before

[@Riddle99-v7q]

I think you would love Clarity by Jimmy Eat World! One of the corner stones of emo.

[@daft4343]

So, I think it would be fantastic if you visited the EVOL album. I believe your ready 🎃😉 Cheers mate!!

[@allstar7760]

Check out the band MONO from japan

[@ivanmandic6494]

Loved the reaction! May I suggest Fleet Foxes - Helplessness blues for the next reaction vid?

[@sorenasikainen5352]

Would be cool if you checked out soundtracks for the blind by Swans :)

[@SpurrBlack]

! Recommend cage the elephant
