Thurston Moore - Flipped Out Bride [Blossoming Noise - 2006]

Flipped out bride brings together two feedback drenched, noisy and  offten cold guitar sculptures from Sonic youths guitarist. I’ll have admit I’ve never been a huge fan Of sonic youths work, but I have quite enjoyed their forays into other project like Text of light.

And this too is an enjoyble enough effort, that finds Moore coaxing some long rich and icy drones from his instrument, as well as cold metallic throbs, muddy strums and high pitch whines. Track one Flipped Out Bride  is the longest here at 16 minutes, leaving track two O Sweet Lanolin  with  just 12 minutes. Flipped Out Bride just judders and circles round and round cold harmonics emitting from it’s core, the tone almost feels like it could snap at any moment like dirty water icicles hang from a grim underpass. O Sweet Lanolin  is a bit more piercing and feels like it may be using more that one guitar, as there’s a sinister  noise guitar throb pained by sour western tones, with violent high pitched bangs over the top. Later on some dry trashing tones appear, like lighting strikes through electronic spines. Both tracks  are interesting  and  enjoyable in thier own right.

It all comes in Digi-pak  featuring art by his fellow youther Kim Gordon. Of course of interest to Sonic youth fans, but also to those who enjoy drawn-out, droning and violent gitar workouts .
