Title:	Silver Session (For Jason Knuth)
Label:	SYR
Format:	CD
Price:	$10.00
Catalog #:	SKR 1

2009 repress. "Silver Session was taken from an evening when SY had to do vocal overdubs for A Thousand Leaves -- the band upstairs was hammering out some funky metal overdrive and we couldn't 'sing' properly (?!) -- we decided to fight fire with molten lava and turned every amp we owned on to 10+ and leaned as many guitars and basses we could plug in against them and roared/HOWLED like airplanes burning over the pacific -- we could only enter the room with hands pressed hard against our ears and even then it was physically stunning -- we ran a sick outmoded beatbox through the p.a. and it blew out horrendous distorted pulsations. Of course we recorded the whole thing and a few months later we mixed it down into sections, ultra-processing it to a wholly other 'piece' -- in a way, it's my favorite record of ours." -- Thurston/Sonic Youth/NYC 1998.
