Song of the Day

WARNING: Do not try this at home. Man in photograph is a professional stunt guitarist.

Antenna- Sonic Youth Sonic Youth, America's most celebrated makers of joyful noise got sacked by last year by Geffen Records and released their latest album, The Eternal is on the venerable indie label, Matador. The music is bold and experimental but songwritting has a dreamy harmonic sheen that is beguiling. It's as about as close to revisiting the fabled territory of Daydream Nation as our heroes have gotten in the past twenty years.

When I frist heard the trippy guitar intro on Antenna, I had an acid flashback and finally recalled the horrifying details of a lost weekend in the Dali Lami's ashram in Dharamsala India. The Eternal is great music to discover the dark and swampy region of your subconcious mind.
