Best known as lead singer, songwriter and guitarist for legendary noise-rockers Sonic Youth, Thurston Moore’s upcoming solo-album, Demolished Thoughts, pursues a different side of the musical spectrum, representing his most nuanced and personal. For his fourth solo effort, Moore enlisted renowned musician and producer Beck Hansen to handle production. Recorded this past autumn and winter, Demolished Thoughts is a beautiful and brooding work; while there are tonal similarities to some favorite Moore compositions from years past, the execution this time around is nothing short of staggering.
