Sonic Youth - Bad Moon Rising (Black Vinyl)

"Bad Moon Rising" was Sonic Youth's third album, preceded by the "Death Valley '69" 7" single in 1984 which featured demo versions of both "Death Valley" and "Brave Men Run" from Bad Moon Rising. The original 12" release contained 8 songs, from the majestic opening notes of "Intro" to Lydia Lunch's furious howl that ends "Death Valley '69" -- all songs segue together except for the side break between "I Love Her All The Time" and "Ghost Bitch" (which is barely noticeable on the CD releases). Bad Moon Rising also marks SY's first music video (for "Death Valley", of course).

In 2015, the band reissued the original album in CD and vinyl format on its own Goofin' label.
