Album Notes
Sonic Youth: Kim Gordon, Thurston Moore, Lee Ranaldo, Steve Shelley.
Additional personnel: Rafael Toral (guitar); Jim O'Rourke (bass); William Winant (percussion).
Principally recorded in New York, New York in August 1999.
NYC GHOSTS & FLOWERS marks the approximate 10-year anniversary of Sonic Youth's involvement in arguably the most historic moment in indie-rock--their signing to Geffen Records. What NYC GHOSTS & FLOWERS mostly reveals is Sonic Youth's ability to continue to pursue their own vision, unencumbered by mainstream pop sensibilities.
Continuing in the mellow vein of 1998's A THOUSAND LEAVES, NYC GHOSTS & FLOWERS starts on an introspective note with the gently winding "Free City Rhymes" which waits patiently for almost three minutes until Thurston Moore's unmistakable light gravel voice eases in beside the guitar noodling. The album's high point comes a couple of songs later on the lightly infectious "Nevermind (What Was It Anyway)," with Kim Gordon singing as powerfully as ever, followed by the potent poetic rambling rant of "Small Flowers Crack Concrete." While obviously not as experimental as releases on their own and other indie labels, NYC GHOSTS & SHADOWS proves that an indie band can survive a decade on a major label and retain its integrity.
