Product ReviewsGoo [LP] by Sonic Youth (Record, 2016)

LP YOUTH

MY FRIEND SAID I SHOULD CHECK OUT THE ORIGINAL EL PE VERSION OF THE TIME SONIC YOUTH 'SOLD OUT' TO MALE-WHITE-CORPORATE-OPRESSION SO I BOUGHT THIS ALBUM.
THEY PLAY 'KOOL THING' ON THE RADIO SO I KNEW THAT CATCHY-TUNE. IT BE KOOL.
'DIRTY BOOTS' WAS ALSO A RADIO UNFRIENDLY UNIT SHIFTER AND IS SO-SO.
'TUNIC (SONG FOR KAREN)' CARPENTER IS A WEIRD LYRIC WITH BACKUP FROM DINO JRS J. MASCIS.
'DISAPPEARER' IS A REAL STRANGE SONG ABOUT SOMETHING OR OTHER SUNG LIKE SOMEONE WHO TOOK A HANDFUL OF 'LUDES AND HOPED FOR THE BEST; IT'S ACCOMPANYING VIDEO IS SHOT BY 'QUEERCORE' DIRECTOR TODD HAYNES.

IT'S AN ALBUM THAT IS FAIRLY STRAIGHT FORWARD (FOR A YOUTH ALBUM) AND AFTER 'DAYDREAM NATION' IT WAS ALL MUCH DOWNHILL FOR THE 'YOUTHSTERS'.

THEY ALWAYS DID CHAMPION THE UNDERGROUND KIDS THAT SUPPORTED THEM UNTIL 1991 TOOK THEM TO MEGA-SALES AND INTERNATIONAL WUNDERKINDNESS AFTER THEY RECORDED A LITTLE ALBUM CALLED 'NERVERMIND' (BUT THAT'S ANOTHER STORY ENTIRELY).

ALL IN ALL 'GOO' IS AN ALBUM WELL WORTH CHECKING OUT.Read full review...
