0:00 - ‘Cross the Breeze 6:15 - Eliminator Jr

[@gabrielharter]

this is probably my favorite sonic youth youtube.

[@LyrsideBand]

This is video is damn gold ; quite hard to find good quality 80s Sonic Youth performance on KZbin. Thank you!

[@TrpleAgnt2011]

Tell me about it.

[@votkiskoc]

Yes, Indeed....what a pity that all the early 80's stuff is a bad vcr record and sounds almost always catastrophically

[@howardrice8330]

There's a reason for that ..

[@franciskhoury4288]

Steve Shelley looks like he was pulled from his pre-algebra class to play this.

[@asusmctablet9180]

Yeah, but then you remember he was in the Crucifucks while the others were only in Sonic Youth

[@isabellaoliveira2028]

so cute

[@jonyone5901]

Cross the Breeze never cease to amaze me. Each listen brings out a different element in the song. At times it sounds like shoegaze ,and at times it weirdly sounds like black metal with the propulsive blast beats. Not to mention the onslaught of guitars and booming bass. What i,m basically try to say is, this song is a masterpiece

[@markbarrett4440]

This was the first time I really 'Got' SY. I was 17, stoned for the first time and listening on headphones walking home from my girlfriend's place in the dead of night in the snow blind winter. Just perfect.

[@ismaelbelda1]

Best SY song ever

[@goskaterightnow]

i don't think of this music as being from the 80s, its like it transcends time and space haha. daydream nation is such a great album

[@sirfizz6518]

yes! so much of the music on independent labels (or unsigned) at that time was so far ahead of it's time. everything that blew up in the 90s directly followed what happened in the underground from the original explosion of punk, the birth of hip-hop and the evolution of disco into house... and all the ways this branched out from illegal warehouse shows to the streets to squats, across oceans and back, from indie labels and alternative imprints to college and pirate radio... all the brilliant art that went on under the noses of people who were glued to MTV watching the likes of the Madonna at the time while stuff like this and Def Jam and techno and thrash metal were all simmering away in so many diverse scenes. it simmered away til it couldn't help but boil over with Nevermind, and Kurt and Krist namechecked Pixies and Husker and Sonic Youth...

[@sexobscura]

@@sirfizz6518 *yes* a completely wonderfully diverse time to be an artist (in any field) - almost like the 60s (or anytime, really)

Steve Shelley is an amazing drummer

[@marcosplazasilva]

Sonic Youth, una de las mejores bandas del universo. La voz de Kim es desgarradora, sutíl y única. Buen registro audiovisual. Pueden pasar mas de 35 años o 100, y su música trasciende eternamente

[@marcosb733227]

sutíl... jejeje

[@fantasykissass]

@goskaterightnow Of course you don't think of this music from the 80's. Even if you were born or a little kid in the 80's. It transcends time.

[@RudyGaLLant]

I saw them on this tour at The Ivory Tusk in Tuscaloosa, AL. The opening band, Titanics, played almost every song off of Raw Power (yes, even Death Trip). I was down front and there was this skinny blonde chick rocking out beside me- I thought she was cool, but def on drugz. Then she got on stage and played bass. I was impressed!

[@ryanand154]

Saw this with my high school sweetheart.

​@@Solemlol😂😂😂😂 that shit

[@zackdaniels6858]

I like the drummer! I wonder if Kurt ever thought if I could find a solid drummer, make sure guitars were tuned and added a bit if heavy, mixed with simple and cool cryptic lyrics that relate to all the shit that’s going on and HATE the biggies, dis the labels but yet TRY HARD AS F CK to be a rock star, Whilst sticking to the heroine diet would that work? I don’t think so…. I believe he was genuine… Solid Nirvana Fan. Nevermind.
