About

"Sick of faceless corporate alternative rock yet? So are Sonic Youth. They’ve spent years watching other bands mangle their ideas and turn the often narrow-minded results into a cause célèbre (or a million seller). Now this patient New York foursome fires-back with a sardonic, wise-ass, indulgent and totally captivating album, Washing Machine. It differs from the band’s last few DGC releases in one important respect: It’s defiantly anti-hook. This album disavows (and sometimes mocks) the conventional post-Nirvana wisdom. It contains gently cooing backing vocals (“Saucer-Like”) and a spoof of the Phil Spector girl-group hits (“Trouble Girl”). It contains mellow guitars and lacerating guitars. One song, “The Diamond Sea,” is a suite that lasts more than 19 minutes." - Rolling Stone, 1995
