‘Demolished Thoughts’ is the third solo album from this cool guitarist of Sonic Youth since his last solo one ‘Trees Outside the Academy’ in 2007……quite an efficient guy in the sense of releasing solo album from a band member……..
Compared to his last one with more guitar noise stuff, Thurston Moore is more on soft side approach and plays some gorgeous poppy easy-accessible chamber acoustic/psychedelic folk this time, something like unplugged Sonic Youth with no more electric guitar noise, very limited drumming, changing to with laid back and soft vocal of his own and adding some elegant violin and orchestral stuff……nevertheless, the music is still so cool especially in term of acoustic folk album…….you still can hear his trademarked cool dissonance power-chord-like repetitive guitar riff ‘decorated’ with some poetic orchestral strings plays……...conceptually no breakthrough, no new things and sometimes some songs are too long and flat might be the down side, but generally speaking this album is still cool, forever-young timeless and good for modern hippie escapism!! (the cover art and LP version's inlay stuff are also so nice!!)
