ABOUT THIS ITEM

"Sister" was Sonic Youth's fifth album, and their second consecutive album with the same drummer performing on all tracks. Obviously, SY had found their groove w/ Steve behind the beats, and it's with those beats that "Sister" begins, kicking off with a little tune called "Schizophrenia" that's been a sonic staple since its composition. It's on this track that Thurston and Kim first trade verses, and that's just one of several sonic firsts on this LP (also including use of acoustic guitar for melodic purposes, use of a Moog synthesizer, and the return of Thurston on bass for the first time since "Confusion Is Sex"). Another Sonic classic!!!
