They have noise super-groups? Sonic Youth, Boredoms, Pussy Galore members re-unite
Free Kitten**, the ‘super-group’ featuring three queens of noise-rock, have reformed to release their first album in over ten years.
Kim Gordon and Julie Cafritz, of Sonic Youth and Pussy Galore** respectively, are re-joined by Boredoms, OOIOO and UFO or Die stalwart Yoshimi P-We for Inherit; the follow-up to 1997 full-length Sentimental Education.
The new record will arrive on the 20th of May through Thurston Moore’s Ecstatic Peace imprint – here’s what’s on it:
'_Erected Girl'
'Surf's Up'
'Sea Sick'
'Free Kitten On The Mountain'
'Roughshod'
'Help Me'
'The Poet'
'Billboard'
'Bananas'
'Monster Eye'
'Sway'_
Connoisseurs may note the absence of original bassist Mark Ibold, also of the ‘on hiatus’ Pavement. But Joe Mascis makes a surprise cameo.

None of those bands are noise.
Can people please stop using the term to look cool.
Thanks.
Do you get
frustrated if people use the word "noise"? Damn you must be very lonely.
Is Ibold
still playing with SY these days?
early sonic youth is noise
very much so.
