Side one fades in with an extended version of the section in
The Good and the Bad that sounds
reminiscent of I Dreamed I Dream.
Interesting to note that Lee does some type of spoken
word overtop which is absent on EP version
"shadows...
morning sun...
blades of grass...
dark night...
sunlight...
twilight... "
05:05 - 07:16
This is a completely unfamiliar piece,
vaguely reminiscent of their cover of
DNA's Blonde Redhead in rhythm,
but otherwise unknown.
Thurston curiously sings She Is Not Alone once at the end.
07:16 - 10:33
"She Is Not Alone"
She is not alone
She is not alone today
She is not alone
She is not alone today
She is not alone
She is not alone today
She is not alone
To... day

The World Looks Read
Push it away
The world looks red
People with fish eyes
The ground sucks
Walk on my fingertips
Displacing the fog
The weight of my body
is too mush to bear
The memory drained
the life from the dull
An ocean of insects
worked like a sheet
the immovable fact
Buried my mind
in a horse-hair coat
in a pile
on the floor
Push it away
The world looks red
People with fish eyes
The ground sucks
Walk on my fingertips
Displacing the fog
The weight of my body
Is too much to bear
The memory drained
The life from the doll
The ocean of insects
Moved like a sheet
The immovable fact
Buried my mind
In a horsehair coat
In a pile
On the floor

Confusion Is Next
I maintain that
Chaos is the future
And beyond it is freedom
Confusion is next and next after that is the truth
You gotta cultivate what you need to need
Sonic tooth
Sonic tooth
Sonic tooth
Stick your fingers
In your mouth
Squeeze your tongue
And wrench it out
From its ugly fucking cancer
Its ugly fucking cancer
Root
You gotta cultivate what you need to need
Sonic tooth
Sonic tooth
Sonic tooth
Chaos is the future
And beyond it is freedom
Confusion is next and next after that is the truth
You gotta cultivate what you need to need
Sonic tooth
Sonic tooth
Sonic tooth
Sonic tooth
Stick your fingers
In your mouth
Squeeze your tongue
And wrench it out
From its ugly fucking cancer
Its ugly fucking cancer
Root
You gotta cultivate what you need to need
Sonic tooth
Sonic tooth
Sonic tooth
Sonic tooth
Tell nothing but the truth
23:47 - 25:16
Portion of Inhuman with
Thurston screaming his lungs out demonically.
25:16 - 26:16
Next is a short one minute sample of what
is probably Thurston slowly playing the riff to
I Wanna Be Your Dog while Lee tunes in the background. Somebody shouts
We're coming!
Towards the end a European
presenter begins speaking
(it's hard to say exactly what this is
-- the band a spent a fair amount of time in Europe in 1983)
26:17 - 27:35
[sound instrumental]
27:36 - 29:28
This sounds to me like the end of
(She's In A) Bad Mood,
really extrapolated, with odd chime noises
and really eerie flute style hums.
You can hear Thurston (?)
say something to someone around 28:52
(all you have to do is turn up our amp ??).
29:29 - 30:20
[Shaking Hell like instrumental]
30:21 - 33:39
The next part begins with a foreign introduction of the band
(w/ Bob Bert, definitely from one of the 1983 European tours),
followed by an energetic and -- better yet -- full version of
Burning Spear. The breakdown features extra vocals by
Thurston, some of which can be discerned as: I feel your soul
... and I can't wait to meet my fate with the burning spear
and
the baby's breath becuz the cross on my back is sonic death
I'm not afraid to say I'm scared
In my bed I'm deep in prayer
I trust the speed I love the fear
The music comes
The burning spear
33:40 - 38:31
[instrumental based around I Wanna Be Your Dog]
[crowd cheers]
The following songs appear in full on this side of Sonic Death:
The World Looks Red -- 17:02 - 19:15 (sped up)
Confusion is Next -- 20:26 - 23:46
Burning Spear -- 30:21 - 33:39
Sonic Youth was an American alternative/noise rock band formed in New York City in 1981. The band, consisting of Kim Gordon (bass, vocals), Thurston Moore (guitar, vocals), Lee Ranaldo (guitar, vocals) and Steve Shelley (drums), revolutionized the musical landscape of the 1980s and 1990s with an experimental sound that blended elements of punk rock, noise, avant-garde and electronic music. Sonic Youth is known for their innovative use of guitar feedback, complex rhythms and theatrical performances. Among their most important albums are "Daydream Nation" (1988), considered a masterpiece of the alternative rock genre, and "Goo" (1990), which brought them mainstream success. Other representative tracks include "Teen Age Riot", "Sugar Kane" and "Bull in the Heather". The band disbanded in 2011 after over three decades of activity, leaving a lasting legacy in contemporary music.

Do we want to define "I know you know me" a masterpiece? Yes, without a shadow of a doubt for at least two reasons. The first and most evident are the artists who interpret it: Caroline Spence and Matt Berninger, second for the deep and poetic text.
My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
