The other side contains pictures from horror movies Friday the 13th Part 2 and Children of the Corn, with a blacked-out image of two ladies in the upper right corner.They never had a Top 10 album, but Sonic Youth amassed legions of devoted fans during its nearly three decades together. This photograph was later used for the cover of the “ Starpower” single. It reads “guitars, vocals, drums”, with “bass” hidden beneath the photograph of the band. The insert features the lyrics to the songs and the A-side depicts Thurston Moore, with eyes drawn on his hands, holding them up to his face. The members’ names are listed on the back cover as well, although no instruments are assigned for them. The album’s 10 songs are listed in a different order than the actual track listing. The back cover shows a black-and-white picture of the band in a heart-shaped frame. Leg had previously appeared in the “Death Valley ’69” music video. The album cover features a picture of model/actress Lung Leg, a still taken from Submit to Me. Pitchfork said that EVOL ” was where the seeds of greatness were sown”, and placed the album 31st on their Top 100 Albums of the 1980s list, alongside Sonic Youth’s next two albums, Sister and Daydream Nation, which ranked 14th and first, respectively. It’s on point and this album doesn’t disappoint, if your in the mood to listen to some punk rock songs then give this a listen <3ĭespite not being successful at the time, the album has received retrospective praise. This is an incredible album in terms of the guitar playing. The album is notable for being the first with a new drummer, Steve Shelley, replacing Bob Bert. It was released in May 1986 by SST Records, the band’s first release on the label. EVOL is the third studio album by the American alternative rock band Sonic Youth. <3 This week on Magic Portals we listen to EVOL by Sonic Youth (it’s one of my favourite albums).
