Is the noise section in Silver Rocket played live? I.e. not layering up a bunch of separate guitar tracks post-production and/or using loads of digital processing etc.
Because if so I can't imagine how the fuck they did that.

Should say was instead of is. Sonic Youth have been on hiatus for years and will probably never comeback since Thurston and Kim's marriage has fallen apart.

I think so. I could believe 2 guitarists with full pedal-boards could make that sound. It's fucking amazing, though. Could you imagine how cool that would be at live shows if they pulled off. I haven't watched any live stuff of them btw
Yeah it is.
Silver Rocket is the definitive SY song though. It's the perfect blend of pop, dissonance, and noise.

Strange opinion. That noise section is absolutely god tier. The song dissolves into absolute chaos, and finds its balance eventually

It's not even the definitive song on Daydream Nation. That'd be Candle.
