Perhaps they could do an LP of spoken-word poetry, the only music being Steve accompanying them on the drums, keeping their rythym in line. I'm sure Steve knows a thing or two about iambic pentameter and the like.

That could be really interesting.

And I know that using MPCs etc does not make a band 'innovatory', but it does pave the way for new sounds. I just think that SY are in danger of becoming irrelevant. I want them to show that life is worth living at 50 and that older people in bands can contribute something REALLY original to music.

If SY put out another album like RR or SN, or MS, I will have lost my faith in the band to be original and special anymore.

Why not go down a totally different route, what is there to lose apart from a few close minded fans that want to hear the same album over and over again?

Hmm, come to think of it, I think a SY electro album with Nas rhymes could really be something special.

Alex's Trip · 11.05.2006, 10:59 PM

Sonic Youth should have a Rap/Hip-Hop album.

fluxequalsrad · 11.06.2006, 01:07 AM

duh great idea. Let a band that has somehow managed to make the guitar sound amazing for more then a dozen albums and well into their 40's mess with the formula just to grab some radiohead-iconography.

HEY I GOT ANOTHER GOOD IDEA! HOW BOUT THEY SIGN TO AN INDIE LABEL!!! I MEAN JEEZ THEY'VE BEEN ON A MAJOR LABEL FOREVER BUT GOSH THEY NEED THAT INDIE CRED!! SIGN TO MATADOR!!!

NickTGH · 11.06.2006, 02:31 AM

How about a CD of just noise, with Thurston and Kim fucking? All the while Steve and Lee are making very loud comments about what their witnessing.

Note: I'm being maybe half-serious.

right pork. that's what i think (even tough i love that album),kid-a as not "innovative" with a wide perspective, it was just an "innovation" for Radiohead's "sound" and composing method. but sy already did things with no guitars (piano piece,campfire ah ah). next : instrumental album. something like the early versions of NYC G&F songs. i will gladly pay whoever can make good quality versions of those songs (either live or actual demos) surface...

Hey! That's my line!

But I'll rep you anyway.

A Thousand Threads · 11.06.2006, 04:41 AM

thanks,
You are an official neubauten supporter?

sonicl · 11.06.2006, 04:55 AM

I am, yes. Have been for all three rounds. I wish I'd subscribed to Musterhaus as well, there's been some excellent stuff released on that project.

A Thousand Threads · 11.06.2006, 05:00 AM

cool
this is the most innovative project in history of music industry
... in my opinion.

sonicl · 11.06.2006, 05:08 AM

Are you signed up as a supporter? I don't participate as much as I'd like to, in terms of watching the webcasts and giving feedback on what's happening, as I don't have broadband access, but I do like to visit from time to time and read what other people are writing.

A Thousand Threads · 11.06.2006, 05:20 AM

i wanted to subscribe but i had some problems with payment method.
i will get a credit card soon and then i´ll sign up.

Heard most of the releases ,though
and they are awsome

sonicl · 11.06.2006, 05:23 AM

The CD from the second supporter project is great, and the DVD too. They have a live DVD coming out very soon, which is right up there at the top of my "wants" list.
