The dynamic cover for Thurston Moore’s SONIC LIFE has been revealed. In an Instagram post sharing the cover, Moore writes: “[SONIC LIFE] has been ages in the making, the product of intensive research and deep dives into my memories and emotions. I believe I’ve been able to capture the whirlwind of experiences that being in Sonic Youth entailed, as well as the creative communities that we found ourselves a part of, first in New York’s punk and no wave scenes, and later in the world of underground and alternative rock and the universe of music-beyond-category. In some ways it barely scrapes the surface, but I’m proud of it and anxious to hear what everyone thinks.” Doubleday will publish the memoir on October 24, 2023.
