my appreciation of Sonic Youth goes as far as Kool Thing. so you can tell how much i know about them. haha. well thanks man, sometime soon i'll get into that shit. life is crazy as balls right now, so it might take a couple weeks for me t put aside the time.
That record is awesome. I don't know if you'll like it, but Festival is an amazing song. My problem with Von is that it still is too much like shoegazer and not enough like a band trying to do it's own thing. The stuff is good, but the stuff they made from then on is so much better. IMO
