Sonic Youth

UK first press 1988. Record plays with a minor crackle in places. Sleeve and inner in nice condition.
Sonic Youth at their most confrontational and mischievous. Two absolute statements of intent. detuned guitars, brute repetition, New York sneer, zero interest in being polite. This is the sound of a band pushing at the edges of punk, noise, and art rock all at once and enjoying every second of the discomfort. Short, sharp, and still feels dangerous. FFO Big Black, Swans early era, No Wave, abrasive guitars, repetition as weapon, records that sound like a challenge
