This skull-melting 57 minute live recording is absolutely astounding. Recorded in 2005 (yes, when good old Jim was still a member) at the Rokslide festival, the performance was the second performance the band did at the festival. The first was more on their structured song material the day before. The second day resulted to this righteous recording- the band wanted to show 'andre sider af Sonic Youth (english translation: Another Side of Sonic Youth) Marked in 5 minute intervals (Kim and Steve start, five minutes later Thurston comes in, etc.) the performance then blows the ears into extreme and beautiful sound with the helps of the underrated Merzbow and sax madman Mats Gustafsson. Not to be listened to in excerpts. Just let it roll. Oh yeah, and Black Sabbath came on after this set. Unreal. Enjoy!
