The sound of Sonic Youth, to me, is one defined by Skronk.
Skronk is any sound created by musical instruments that is not classifiable as actual chords, notes, etc. feedback is skronk. distortion adds skronk. a drill to a fretboard is pure ever-lovin skronk.
Skronk is my favorite musical "sound"
It is what I look for in my rockin music, and in much of my jazz collection
The sound of the last 4 minutes of MOTE for instance, is the greatest sound of my life.
