Sonic Youth – The Eternal

Sonic Youth – The Eternal
It’s official, The Eternal will be released June 9th on Matador Records. The sound of the album is claimed to be a combustion of all their material from the dissonance of their s/t album to the poppy tunes of Rather Ripped. As Murray Street and Sonic Nurse had the ‘quintet’ setup including Jim O’Rourke‘s guru guitar abilities, they again return to the setup including Pavement bassist Mark Ibold. The album cover features artwork from folk guitar legend John Fahey. Read the review on Rolling Stone for more information.
