SONIC YOUTH on the Thursday Night Feature, Thursday 9 p.m.-midnight
Tune in tonight for a retrospective of the music of Sonic Youth. Hear rare
and live recordings contextualized with album cuts and band history. Sonic
Youth have been on the cutting edge of experimental rock since they formed
amidst the New York punk/no wave scene in 1981. Throughout the eighties
and nineties, they've helped to introduce new sounds into the wider music
world, from Seattle grunge to Japanese noise rock to Avant-Garde
composition. Today, they continue to evolve, with the addition of Jim
O'Rourke to the lineup, their recent sonic explorations on SYR records,
and their involvement with the All Tomorrow's Parties festivals. Tonight,
WXYC will devote three hours to the music and the story behind Sonic
Youth.


"THINGS" on Hell or High Water, Sunday 1 p.m.-2 p.m.
This week, Hell or High Water will feature songs about "things." Some
