Kim's responsible for many of their songs and her voice doesn't start sounding particularly thrashed until the later 90's albums. There's a difference between even Bull In The Heather Kim and The Ineffable Me Kim.

Do the members even write lyrics for one another? I kinda figured if she sang it, she probably wrote it.

Her version of "Aneurysm" was brilliant, but very niche.

hey lads, i've only listened to daydream nation from sonic youth's discog. why does everyone always complain about kim singing? i didn't think she was anything special either but not really that bad, and thurston didn't strike me as a particularly good singer compared to her.

Bull in the Heather, as well.

>>62416056
Yes, though it's not one of my favorites of theirs.

Tunic, though, might be my favorite song of theirs.

I can't believe that's her real name.

So, so apt.
>>
>>62417194
I prefer her on Loveless but prefer Kevin on every other album
>>
>>62415784
every track she's on Daydream Nation and earlier
>>
>>62415919
She sings like she doesn't give a fuck, or feels too cool for her own music, which I guess puts off some people but I find it intoxicating.

Star Power is a good example
>>
Her singing is alright, her lyrics though...
I just want to say that A 1000 leaves is actually pretty good.

Mariah Carey + The Arthur Doyle Handcream is a top 5 Sonic Youth song, and it's Kim at her harshest ever

Too underrated

I think I remember reading somewhere that whoever wrote the lyrics got to sing them. It makes sense for the most part, the songs where Kim sings seem to be more stream-of-consciousness and the songs where Lee sings seem to have more vivid and surreal imagery. Thurston's lyrics are usually the least interesting.
>>62415919
I think it's just because it's so rough. Personally I love that she can go from sounding fairly sensual like in the intro to Teen Age Riot or the mini-chorus in The Sprawl to almost hardcore punk in 'Cross the Breeze or Pacific Coast Highway, but I can see how people might not be able to get into that.

>>62420270
hey fuck u

Also fun fact: That jag guy survived columbine
>>
>>62417368
So what do you think of thurston doing it live all the time instead?
>>
>>62421340
He wrote that one, same with some others like Doctor's Orders. I like the recording of Star Power but I'd like to hear Thurston's take.
