Bizarro.

Thurston Moore: No, no. We kind of need to record a song for this Starbucks record that's coming out.

Pitchfork: For, uh, Starbucks?!

[Lili Marlene]

rock on.

Jesus Christ, so basically Sonic Youth asked a bunch of people to choose their favourite Sonic Youth song and then write down for them why Sonic Youth are the best band ever and now they're releasing it! The arrogance is astounding!

and that paragraph about underground bands comes out of nowhere

That has to be a pisstake. Of all (major label "indie") bands, sonic youth seem the least likely to try sell a CD off the back of name recognition for people (arguably) more famous than them, and even less likely for it to be in starbucks.

 

[dudley]

sonic youth are also most likely to not give a shit what you, i or anyone else things of the record label they choose to put their stuff out on

 

[Jerry Twig]

What's worse, Thurston Moore, Pitchfork or Starbucks?

Tough call

 

[Wobbler]

I thought Paul McCartney had more integrity than that.

everytime you eat a linda mc cartney sausage, you're fueling his heroin addiction!

 

[love jones]

like dudley said, but also, does anyone care what sonic youth do?

 

[mackle]

Going on the last 2 Sonic Youth albums it'll be shite whatever they do for them.......

[magnetize]

[das funkinstein]

[Goodbye]
