3.4 greatErwann S. EMERITUS | October 27th 20

Sonic Youth's last album, but they haven't lost their touch. Halfway between melodic and noisy, The Eternal is a punching record summarizing the band's 90s/00s career: a touch of alt rock, a touch of noise rock, and here we go. It's not revolutionary, but the simple act of delivering solid albums after solid albums is to be lauded. Godspeed, Sonic.

4.0 excellentlz41 | August 24th 14

'The Eternal' is the Youth's most consistent album in years with luminous sonic interludes and walls of transcendent, spiritual guitar.
