With all the Christmas hecticness and the impending New Year bollocks, I'd forgotten all about being New York noise legends, Sonic Youth coming to Manchester. The Pop Group will also be in attendance, shouting their insane post punk aggressive dub reggae type weird shit, and I can't wait. London will be treated to a New Years special featuring a midnight show from the Youth and additional support act from Steve Albini's Shellac. A great way to end the year, albeit in Manchester a day early. Last time I caught them was at Coachella in 2007 where they started with 'Candle' and it just went off. It's a shame both shows are now sold out. If you aren't a lucky bastard like me, enjoy what's below and take it as a late Christmas present, which these shows most certainly are.
Sonic Youth-Candle
Shellac-Prayer to God
