Sonic youth - Experimental Jet set thrash and no stars



This is the first SY cd i owned because it had 'Bull in the heather' the first song i ever liked from them because it had that video with Kathleen hanna annoying them though back then i didn't know who she was



This cd had 14 tracks but to be honest with you i remember 4 of them at best, i hated this cd, honestly i didn't get it but i decided to give it a shot anyway

i would play a videogame and put the cd as background music
this actually helped me process SY gradually through repetition, i became familiar with their songs and suddenly all that noise became music.

Its hard to get into at first cause songs go from noisy to mellow and some songs are more like spoken poems by Kim gordon than actual songs the 'Doctor's order' track is a good exmpl of this.

Overall its not a bad cd but i prefer washing machine
