Even at this later stage of the band's run, there's an undeniable charge in the air at this gig. With Mark Ibold on bass, the band plays the majority of the songs from \u003cem\u003eThe Eternal\u003c\/em\u003e (the set list only leaves off \"Thunderclap for Bobby Pyn\") and barrels through several\u003cbr\u003eback-catalog classics like they were written earlier that week. This reading of \u003cem\u003eSister\u003c\/em\u003e's \"Stereo Sanctity\" has as much power as the original, and the final encore of \"Death Valley '69\" leans into chaos and abandon, exploding in all directions and unraveling into screams and feedback that push the envelope even for a band whose creative language was born of those elements. It's a stunning capture of a special night, and highlights a phase of Sonic Youth's history that's deeper into the story but no less important.\u003cbr\u003eThis show was recorded to digital multi-track and later mixed by Aaron Mullan. Rather than a rough-cut audience tape or a mix grabbed from the soundboard, \u003cem\u003eLive in Berlin 2009\u003c\/em\u003e is a studio-quality capture of the band in prime stage form.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMain Set:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo Way\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSacred Trickster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCalming The Snake\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStereo Sanctity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWalkin Blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePoison Arrow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnti-Orgasm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSilver Rocket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMalibu Gas Station\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAntenna\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeaky Lifeboat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTom Violence\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMassage The History\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEncore Break\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1st Encore\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat We Know\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCross The Breeze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEncore Break 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2nd Encore\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShadow Of A Doubt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeath Valley '69\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Revolver","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45352553414707,"sku":"20410 CD","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0064\/5935\/9283\/files\/cover_9e79439b-de29-4b86-a509-2e6f77663de6.jpg?v=1794599470","url":"https:\/\/seasickbham.com\/products\/sonic-youth-live-in-berlin-2009-2xcd","provider":"Seasick Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
