Sonic Youth + Minutemen's Mike Watt + Dinosaur Jr.'s J Mascis + Madonna tribute = Ciccone Youth. In one word, it's e x p e r i m e n t a l, playing with noisy textures ("Macbeth", a clear highlight), Madonna covers ("Into the Groovey", or Watt's "Burning Up") and even silence ("(Silent)", which is... completely silent wow so edgy). It's messy, bloated and obnoxious, although the good parts are great - maybe that mostly have to do with me being a sucka for Sonic Youth in general.
