He wanted to be immersed in downtown New York's sights and sounds--the feral energy of its nightclubs, the angular roar of its bands, the magnetic personalities within its orbit. But more than anything, he wanted to make music--to create indelible sounds that would move, provoke, and inspire. His dream came to life in 1981 with the formation of Sonic Youth, a band Moore co-founded with Kim Gordon and Lee Ranaldo. Sonic Youth became a fixture in New York's burgeoning No Wave scene--an avant-garde collision of art and sound, poetry and punk. The band would evolve from critical darlings to commercial heavyweights, headlining festivals around the globe while helping introduce listeners to such artists as Nirvana, Hole, and Pavement, and playing alongside such icons as Neil Young and Iggy Pop. Through it all, Moore maintained an unwavering love of music: the new, the unheralded, the challenging, the irresistible. In the spirit of Just Kids, Sonic Life offers a window into the trajectory of a celebrated artist and a tribute to an era of explosive creativity. It presents a firsthand account of New York in a defining cultural moment, a history of alternative rock as it was birthed and came to dominate airwaves, and a love letter to music, whatever the form. This is a story for anyone who has ever felt touched by sound--who knows the way the right song at the right moment can change the course of a life 600 10 Moore, Thurston 600 14 Moore, Thurston,|d1958- 610 24 Sonic Youth (musikgrupp) 650 0 Musicians|zUnited States|vBiography 650 7 Indie|2sao 650 7 Rockmusiker|2sao 650 7 Experimentell musik|2sao 650 7 Rock|2sao 650 7 Gitarrister|2sao 650 7 Alternative rock musicians.|2fast 651 7 Förenta staterna|2sao 655 0 Autobiographies 655 7 Självbiografier|2saogf
