Sonic Youth's Daydream Nation

Daydream Nation is the kind of gorgeous monstrosity (born of extremes, rife with difficulties, and mythical in proportion) that can crush the will of the most resilient, well-intentioned listener if the necessary preparations haven't been made. Matthew Stearns explores the album from a range of angles, including a track-by-track analysis and a look at the historical and cultural context within which the album was made. Featuring a foreword by Lee Ranaldo and exclusive interviews with the band, this truly is the definitive guide to Daydream Nation .
