The Destroyed Room: B-Sides & Rarities is generally what you would expect a b-side album to sound like from a band such as Sonic Youth.
The Destroyed Room is a creative - and quintessentially Sonic Youth - approach to the rarities and B-sides comp. The tracks have been well selected which gives it some cohesion- generally atmospheric, I found The Destroyed Room to be quite enjoyable. The tracks have been well selected which gives it some cohesion- generally atmospheric, mainly instrumental tracks.
Devoted to the more open-ended rarities that have gathered in Sonic Youth's discography in the decade spanning from Experimental Jet Set, Trash & No Star to Sonic Nurse, The Destroyed Room serves as a reminder that even the band's sketches and non-album tracks remain fascinating.
