Sonic Youth - Kill Yr. Idols (full ep)

[@kingdozerr]

Best SY record

[@Jack_nnn_]

Last minute or so of Early American sounds like a shark swimming at high speed, deep in the ocean in the dead of night

[@oliviercornut9520]

One the best Rock n'Roll single ever....SHAAAAKE!!!!!! .

[@Rxke]

That live version of Shaking Hell... Perfectly horrifying.

[@bobblip]

must have been unreal to be there

[@solkollektor5595]

... got it on vinyl. Long time no play ;)

[@ms-iz9ye]

Sol Kollektor lucky you.. did you find it on line or at a record store? And is it an original pressing?

[@ms-iz9ye]

I need this on vinyl for my Sonic Youth LP collection.

[@mercurialmagictrees]

Yeah I need this and their 2000s albums

[@TrevorBarre]

Get Kill Your Idols then.@@mercurialmagictrees

[@TheDeadAirFresheners]

Who the hell put a dislike on this? Somebody expecting everything they do to sound like "Kool Thing"??

[@Skiptracer1981]

LMAO. I was thinking the same thing.

[@_u_t_o_n_]

probably someone who doesn't want to kill his idols

[@lennyzefflin9876]

Why does everybody have to bring up Kool Thing?

[@E-Chap]

Maybe someone who didn't like it?

[@alejandrovenegasheresi2697]

Amazing. Thanks for sharing!!

[@franklee9814]

German release only back in 83 on Zensor Records. My copy has Confusion Is Sex and Kill Yr. Idols superimposed on top of each other.

[@eleazarestrella6111]

Kill yr idols is the best no-wave song ever by far.

[@ceef8688]

first time listening, but it immediately sounds like they hanged out with Swans at the time. To think, how many years I thought Sonic Youth were colleagues of Stone Temple Pilots and the touring -fest staples like Pearl Jam. Smh... I hope they reissue Confusion/Kill Your Idols on LP!

[@DJSmokey666]

My shit rite here

[@illeagleproducionz8116]

Hi DJ Smokey 🎉😊🎉

[@chazriley7075]

What up fellow cool kids. Fuck the system

[@kennethlally1735]

I'm surprised theres only 16 likes!!!!

[@the_neutral_container]

But every one of them started a band.

[@Jack_nnn_]

the second Shaking Hell, the live one, might be the best existing recording of Sonic Youth's music. this ep is mad underrated

[@skaldlouiscyphre2453]

I liked Sonic Youth more when they sounded like they were ripping off Teenage Jesus and the Jerks.

[@KnifeWoundGirl]

You can say that every no wave band of the era ripped off teenage Jesus and the jerks Lydia lunch is like the catalyst for everything no wave except for the band mars they were the OG

[@skaldlouiscyphre2453]

@@KnifeWoundGirl Definitely. I just meant I like their material before they found 'a sound of their own', so to speak.

[@KnifeWoundGirl]

@@skaldlouiscyphre2453 you can find hints of their no wave past in some of their later stuff but unfortunately it will never fulfill the primal energy they had during the no wave era

[@icebat000]

[@DavidPerez-kb6xr]

tru

[@thetriumphofthethrill2457]

Although the magic isn't there yet this is a decent effort by the group from their early days. Good that it's here.

[@oceanautt]

the magics there, just in an earlier form
