Sonic Youth - 11/08/85 Zap Club, Brighton 6. Ghost Bitch

[figurativ]

for 30 years their sonics have been linear in the sense that they sticked to that sound, and that's because they believed in what they did from the very beginning. their sound is like an outstanding voice, you can instantly identify it in a bucket of sounds. no change of tone what so ever in any of their albums (okay, maybe with the exception of rather ripped). there are alterations, but the core remains essentially the same: exploration and art

Man, it's so fucking hard to believe that this insanity came at the time that Glamcock Metal was at full swing! Amazing.

Actually, i like the studio version of Ghost Bitch, but sometimes it's much more impressive to see how these songs are done, especially with the sound effects like jamming drumsticks underneath the strings or strumming a guitar then pushing it against an amp.

The studio versions of their early songs fall so seriously short of the live versions.
