Live Review: Sonic Youth and Yeah Yeah Yeahs in Brooklyn
Rolling Stone – Aug 15, 2006
Like Juno said its just noise. Have you ever listened to punk music? there is nothing punk about guns n roses and that is an insult to all punk-listeners especially bc they sing about NTHING important. i think you’ll find that in fact guns and roses are in fact a generic hair band and the only thing metallica has going for them is their tight pants. Sonic Youth has been around since the 80’s broand yes they can play their instruments they just want to make their sound more distorted and trashy sounding that’s the whole point of the band geeeesh.
Domestic Tranquility and Social Justice

I’m gonna try to figure it out here so work with me. First of all the band’s influences are very clear which doesn’t cause me to immediately discredit it. I mean after all this is punk music. originality is few and far between. But that’s how I like it… originality is few and far between. But that’s how I like it. The problem is there is too much shit going on here. ne minute I’m hearing something reminding me of Anti-Flag then it busts into a breakdown that mixes in a very heavy Thrice sound (see “March of Dissent”). This trend continues throughout the album good songs interrupted by unnecessary breakdowns and gang vocals.

The result? Millions of cookie cutter pop-punk lovesick junkie bands. It’s good but after the 5th time around it gets a bit stolid. That being said Unwritten Law does not fit into this catagorie. For one thing they’re lyrics are much deeper and well more phylisophical to say the least. Not all they’re songs are all “my girlfriend dumped me for someone else” or “I just met some hottie and I can already tell she’s my soulmate” basically sh** that just doesn’t fly in real life. Just read the lyrics to “Seeing Red. ” But on another level the guitar is so much more sophisticated.

That shit was ‘off the chain’ or ‘Alice in Chains’ for those in Seattle. But Japanther’s artful racket isn’t for everybody. The band recently performed at an antiwar benefit where one speaker decried their brand of noise-punk as inherently violent and “the kind of music they play in the tanks. “I was astonished” recalls Vanek. “I shouted ‘That’s fucked lady! I support our troops!’ This created a sickly pause in an already polarized room. So I took the opportunity to cuss her out and son her on a couple of things. At a time when punk rock has been largely sanitized for suburban food-court consumption Japanther are making it loud messy and confrontational again.

In anticipation of the film’s Friday release Snakes on a Plane: The Album spits up a new Cee-Lo tune “phidiophobia” (the fear of snakes); a new acoustic song by Coheed and Cambria; plus exclusive remixes of Panic! at the Disco Fall ut Boy and All-American Rejects tunes. Sounds like a lethal combination. Thunder Down Under by underground-punk vipers Hot Snakes will be no match for the soundtrack but devout fans will no doubt swallow up the posthumous live LP. Recorded on May 10 last year for the Australian Broadcast Company for air on radio the set features “Think About Carbs” “U. Mint” and “Let It Come.
