Lee Ranaldo 'In Virus Times' (Mute Records)
Posted: Wed Nov 24, 2021 6:23 pm'Excuse me, Lee, but geez, you've done another pretty cool release (as minimalist as it is) in your post sonic Youth years.
Some really nice/weird folk-ish guitar experimentations on this. Part 1 and 4 my faves.
I will have to let Lee and Thurston's solo music suffice until Sonic Youth re-unites which I demand happens circa 2023.
I know that I'm out of the loop, but I never even realized that Mute Records was still around before seeing these ads last month. Last album I bought from Mute was a Wire 12".
Anyway, the cover art/photography for Lee's new 12" is real nice. Turquoise colored wax for those who care about that thing.

I wonder if he would get pissed off if I used it as a backing track to play on top of and record.
