If anyone is interested in the tuning he is using: Just randomly twist on the tuners until it sounds like the worst mistake you made is breaking up Sonic Youth.
Lmao when people say he is playing the song poorly. It's literally a noise rock song, the original is just as chaotic. But I do agree that it isn't nearly as good with only Thurston
I hope thurston reads this, sonic youth is one of my favorite bands and they got me into learning and moving forward on playing guitar especially thurston so thank everyone in that band
I saw Thurston moore band, in 2014 I think it was, in Exeter (Devon) it was one of the best live band experiences of my life, no lie. I had like two beers, but when I closed my eyes listening to the band, with the hammering baseline, solid drums, and two guitar's playing chordialy with each other, I felt my brain floating upwards. Music to trip to, with out the need of outside chemical influence. I have so much time for this dudes music.
Why , to the infinity power , did I not see them when they came to play in Knoxville at the fabulous Tennessee Theater !? Deffinately a hard learned lesson ...
Never realised just how much SY depended on Lee Renaldo for the real guitar playing but...yeah. And I've seen them live and have been a fan since the Teenage Riot days.
Sonic Youth is a group of four brilliant musicians. Individually they are still brilliant musicians, but together they are more than just a good band. SY depended on each of them
@@umgfll7950No, the comment *has to gobbIe some proverbial sausage* ignoring that SY is an experimental band and "100%" has a noise background throughout the entire song.
Julius Balthazar Kopald Never knew much about Joe, but Henry Rollins does a really powerful spoken word performance about what happened to them both on you tubes somewhere. Sad story.
Michelle Leon’s ‘I Live Inside: Memoirs Of A Babe In Toyland’ talks about Joe as well. (It’s also, I think, one of the best memoirs of that whole period in music and is really worth a read).
I've heard Henry Rollins tell the story of Joe Cole's death a couple times and never heard him say "gang violence." From my memory, it was a robbery gone wrong a few days after someone (Rick Rubin maybe?) had come to their house in a limo. Does anyone else recall the story?
Turn everything on and off a lot. Just to keep it interesting bump it an octave or two and if you also happen to have a carriage spring laying around slap your guitar body with it while making a vague e chord. YVW.
Yeah. That thing in the context of Sonic Youth backed by Steve Shelley’s drumming or Kim’s voice or Lee’s counterpoint makes total sense. It worked. But that thing on it’s own, oh man. Kinda cringy like watching a teenager trying to play something edgy to a punk chick circa 1990 or something
Ah yes a campfire guitar classic!
;-)
This is more like 25%
Shut up
was quite funny though
yeah, this song doesn't quite work with just one person
The Math checks out!
Thats funny as fuck
5:00 kinda hilarious to imagine that dude is just on his phone playing angry birds
@@teskosuicide agreed

Sonic Youth was one of my favorite bands for a long long time and influenced me bigtime musically. Really really miss them.
4:47 What I do when I'm listening to Sonic Youth
Man, thats funny!😅🤣😂
“and all you men are slime” my fave sonic youth line. always knew Thurston would prove it true.
OOP-
oofff
stfu
Now if thurston had written that line about women there wouldve been aa rather large outcry
@@zerronyx1362 100%, no pun intended
I hope thurston reads this, sonic youth is one of my favorite bands and they got me into learning and moving forward on playing guitar especially thurston so thank everyone in that band
I don't think he's gonna read this
Same :)
Jake Warrington - GFX, Cinematics and More! I agree .
Obviously he might not see it but there’s always a chance
Sorry it took a year I’m here and your welcome😂🤯
it's cool how his singing stills the same of the young thurston and when he starts talking is totally different.
I Think its totally opposite
4:54 his face of happiness.
5:07 ....absolute skill
Wesley Dunn or you can buy a Metal Muff
Hahaa, yeah, i used to have one..
Absolute shite
@@joshuaknight7079 🤣
@@andresr7344 😆
LOL @ "I played some of those chords wrong." I've always admired Thurston's wit.
He was playing just his part of the song, thats why it is not that Simple for some to see the picture. To me its superb, abstract and wild playing
theWARMJET Absolutely man ;)
100% it's amazing to see only part of the puzzle you can see and hear even more how unique his guitar playing is.
Agree I think it's great
@fox pals not a shreder 4 sure
@fox pals :D

two guitars playing chordialy? With out?
I think someone spiked your beers ,buddy
@@filipecoutinho5706 2 beers are no external influence. (when you first had a cocktail of everything else in the morning)
No you literally have to be high for to sound good cuz I'm smoking and just weed right now and this sounds like s***
if anyone's curious, the person Thurston is talking about around the 2:15 mark ish is Joe Cole
Flawless performance - Never hit a bum note once.
ummm
Never heard of you!
@@foxontherun4754 - I've never heard of you either, so what right do you have to comment? What right do you have to an opinion?
If a shreds version of this video would be made, it would just be this video
The guy like 60 I think he can be forgiven for wanting health insurance
fuck you asshole
Dude you are a fucking idiot
JC is such a beautiful song
how can you play the chords wrong!!! the guitar is in F#F#F#F#EB! man, that was amazing. weird seeing him rock out without lee...
lee's the best
Wow, i might even be able to play 100%
This is pure genius… there will never be another top 40 song that will sound like this.
the opening strummed chord drone at 02:40 had me hoping "Tunic" was comin'
I thought that kool thing it was
I want one of his Jazzmasters. Lee has one Fender made for him too, his has Humbuckers and a Mustang bridge.
Hope to see Sonic Youth together asap
i know, but i hope they will make peace
A snowball's chance...
Why , to the infinity power , did I not see them when they came to play in Knoxville at the fabulous Tennessee Theater !? Deffinately a hard learned lesson ...
:crickets:
watching Thurston, it seems that playing guitar is the simplest thing in the world
2:42 Here begins the magic
Fantastic
I love SYs concepts and ideas and atitude 💚
Man it feels weird to hear Thurston start to have that old man voice
soon he'll be yelling at the neighbor kids to get off his lawn!!!
Finally I can see the chords for this song.
Out of all the musical performances on UA-cam, this is easily one of them.
Played in sonic y sharp
what a beautiful jazzmaster
Say what you will about the solo performance being underwhelming, but goddamn he never lost that vocal swag 🤙
Legend

The arthritis is killing the dude nowadays...this vid being a shining example
Real fans have always known Lee was SY’s George Harrison.

@@umgfll7950No, the comment *has to gobbIe some proverbial sausage* ignoring that SY is an experimental band and "100%" has a noise background throughout the entire song.
“Real guitar playing” SY is not for u bro
I love this
anyone has tabs for this? >__
what pedal is that at 5:00??
distortion + overdrive i guess
Turbo RAT boosting a MXR Jimi Hendrix Octave Fuzz.
Awesome!
Was he talking about joe cole ?
yes
Julius Balthazar Kopald Never knew much about Joe, but Henry Rollins does a really powerful spoken word performance about what happened to them both on you tubes somewhere. Sad story.
Michelle Leon’s ‘I Live Inside: Memoirs Of A Babe In Toyland’ talks about Joe as well. (It’s also, I think, one of the best memoirs of that whole period in music and is really worth a read).
That is a rhetorical question, correct?
If you can find a copy, read Joe’s book “Planet Joe.”
From the heart man
Someone know his Tuning?
Holy shit Thurston is an old man now
Best power cords ever
No.
@@eldoabrahamson yes.
118 people need a hug
Damn when thurston starts playing any of sonic Youth songs, it seems like he comebacks to his 20s
He was in his 30s when it came out...
RAW
Jeebus Chrust NO RUBER
I was expecting the chords isn’t he play lee’s part??
Absolutely fantastic.
These testicles.
Nice

What was that noisy effect kicked on at the very end? Anyone?
delay is my guess with quick strumming
@@binky777 sounds like a little more than that, honestly. I used to do a lot of noise stuff with delay and never found a screechy fuzziness like that.
@@SimplyJosh probably two fuzzes stacked. Sounds like there is a gate as well. Try a Fuzz Factory by Zvex. By itself it gets pretty close.
is there more of this interview anywhere? can't find it on youtube.
IMHO it just doesn't work without Ranaldo's duelling guitar nevermind Gordon & Shelley holding them together together ☹️
this is so strangely fantastic
This song is all about the drums and bass. He should do something like genetic solo
Hey kids, this is what a musician sounds like. You're welcome.
Btw, look at that "nails on a chalkboard" face at 3:29 LOL
Ooo! Do nic fit next!
sweet ass guitar
Anyone know where this tuning comes from ?
these testiclees
Just start twisting the tuners until it sounds like you made the biggest mistake of your life in breaking up Sonic Youth.
This was cool as fuck to see solo rad
I've heard Henry Rollins tell the story of Joe Cole's death a couple times and never heard him say "gang violence." From my memory, it was a robbery gone wrong a few days after someone (Rick Rubin maybe?) had come to their house in a limo. Does anyone else recall the story?
Anyone know his dirt pedals for this?
big muff pi russian
he uses a RAT and a metal muff
I feel like there is a RAT here but the ending sounds pretty close to a Fuzz Factory by Zvex
He's using a Jimi Hendrix Octave Fuzz by MXR at the end, also a Turbo rat throughout the whole song
I'm gonna turn on just a little distortion 😅
Hey! Some "Lee Ranaldo" May help!..
'Love Pump' moment.....Lamacq as DiBergi
Perfect! Lol
Love it!!
That's only approximate.....jeeeee
Megadave plays Sonic Youth.
is Lamacq just texting away? lol
I'd love to see how he uses that pedalboard
Turn everything on and off a lot. Just to keep it interesting bump it an octave or two and if you also happen to have a carriage spring laying around slap your guitar body with it while making a vague e chord. YVW.
there are several better tracks from dirty, but just thurston's part here is still compelling on its own
Cool, tunning?
Where is the music?
I thought I couldn't play guitar very well. After hearing this I'm a virtuouso...
gotta be a fan ooowwwwwwwowwwwwwooowww
Sounds like he's playing through a distortion pedal with a flat battery lmao
Excellence.
:-)
It's nice to hear it sparse.
I actually like this version
Thurston is a fantastic musician, and Sonic Youth rule, end of story.
2:50 - 90s flashback
Oh wow %100 was written about Joe Cole?
yep
I can never forget you the way you rock the girls
They rule the world and love you, a blast in the underworld
I stick a knife in my head thinking 'bout your eyes
But now that you been shot dead, I got a new surprise
But I've been waitin' for you just to say, the Zoftig chick is mine
But all I know is you got no money, but that's got nothing to do with a good time
But can you forgive the boy who shot you in the head
Or should you get a gun and go and get revenge
A 100% of my love up to you true star
It's hard to believe you took off, I always thought you'd go far
I've been around the world a million times and all you men are slime
A gun to my head, goodbye, I am dead
Wastewood rockers, it's time for crime, hey
