Product Details

Goo marked Sonic Youth's major label debut on DGC in 1990, a move that felt genuinely seismic at the time, arriving just as the underground and the mainstream were beginning to negotiate terms with each other. Lee Ranaldo, Thurston Moore, and Kim Gordon had spent the decade rewiring what a guitar could do, and here they brought that noise literacy to a wider stage without softening a single edge.

Goo is a portrait of Sonic Youth at their most self-indulgently noisy and contentious, covering topics ranging from Karen Carpenter ('Tunic') to UFOs ('Disappearer') to dating Jesus' mom ('Mary-Christ'). Even Public Enemy's Chuck D joins the fracas on the single 'Kool Thing'.
