Goodbye 20th Century

by Christian Wolff / Sonic Youth

Goodbye 20th Century cover art

Functioning as a tribute to the post-war avant-garde, this ambitious double album features the noise rock pioneers performing interpretations of graphic scores and indeterminate compositions by 20th-century masters. The project serves to directly connect the dots between high-art minimalism and downtown experimental rock improvisation.
