about

“Yuppy is an experimental rock band based in St. Louis, Missouri. Tom, Anthony, Michael, and Jim write their songs in a collaborative process, generating a patchwork of riffs and noise. Tom and Anthony converse through dueling vocal melodies and contrasting guitars in their style of dynamics and big breakdowns.” - Delia Rainey

Tape arrived with lightning speed and came with a bunch of cool stickers! Thank you so much! I am becoming very fond of these (at first glance) simple loops with wonderfully overapplied effects. Tron Tron

Sonic Youth is one of those bands where you easily run out of superlatives to describe what they created. This could've easily come off as a cynical cash-grab by a band that had broken up 11 years prior to the release of this record, but that's not what this is. Some of my favourite Sonic Youth instrumentals. sentient meat
