    The guitar work gets so much attention but Steve Shelly is one of my favorite rock drummers. Rock solid and so inventive, yet always playing what's best for the song and never showing off

    • @3340steve

      Try to check out the live take of Teenage Riot....Steve Shelly is fantastic...

      Reminds me of Ringo...Just what is right for the song - nothing more or anything less

      Whish he would hit those drums a bit harder.

    • @krabbshaq3751
      @krabbshaq3751 3 года назад +15

      He has some of the most precise and tight drumming I've heard. I don't even think Nirvana era Dave Grohl compares to Steve Shelley.

    • @sianspherica
      @sianspherica 3 года назад +7

      Steve's timing I'd argue was the most consistent thing in the entire long history of the band (in his time in SY). If you watch live SY videos in like 1987 and 2010 he didn't really lose a step.

      It’s great but I have trouble listening to it prior to them changing Kim’s bass part, changing the harmonic solo to a minor key.

    Unbelievable. Pitch perfect, after all those years too. It just amazes me how what sounds like an off-key, improv jam to a non-fan is in fact one of the most excellent and precise compositions of our times.

      It's haunting.
      Imagine meeting a hot girl and she says she's schizo and it is taking her over, as you speak to her. It's a horrifying moment. This song is classic SY

    Sonic Youth have been my favorite band since 1988, and you have it exactly right. Also through some Glenn Branca, Television and Velvet Underground into the mix.

    [Thurston]
    I went away to see an old friend of mine
    His sister came over she was out of her mind
    She said Jesus had a twin who knew nothing about sin
    She was laughing like crazy at the trouble I'm in
    Her light eyes were dancing she is insane
    Her brother says she's just a bitch with a golden chain
    She keeps coming closer saying "I can feel it in my bones
    Schizophrenia is taking me home"
    My Future is static
    It's already had it
    I could tuck you in
    And we can talk about it
    I had a dream
    And it split the scene
    But I got a hunch
    It's coming back to me

      chetrok1 no it's about Philip K. Dick (author of 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?'.... later to become Blade Runner).
      Dick was born with a twin sister who died at birth, this influenced his whole life. Thurston was a real Philip K. Dick fan so he based the song loosely on him.
