EVOL,released in the mid 80s is the best representation of where sonic youth are at now.
It is the band at their most ghostly and spectral.lodged between the two ultimate classics Sister and Daydream Nation it is an album often overlooked.It is short with only 9 tracks but many of them are bonafide SY classics.There is KIms Starpower,Lees Green Light and the only song that was ever like an anthem-Expressway to yr Skull (called here Madonna Sean and Me).It features weird spoken word stories ghostly instrumentals and it is all ace.
It lacks the immediacy of Sister and doesnt rock half as hard as Daydream Nation but for a chill out Sonic Youth session there is no better album.File alongside the Made in USA instrumental LP.
its also real cheap-about a fiver
