Sonic Youth (Photo: Stefano Giovannini)

Sonic Youth was formed in 1981. The
original members were Thurston
Moore, Kim Gordon, Ann DeMarinis
and Richard Edson.

Before their debut album,
Sonic Youth, Ann had left but Lee
Ranaldo joined the band. After their
first album Richard Edson left Sonic
Youth to pursue a career with Konk.

Then for a brief period Jim Sclavunos did Sonic's drumming and can be heard on
Confusion is Sex. From 1982 till 1985 Bob Bert was the drummer. He drums on most of
Bad Moon Rising. Since then Steve Shelley has been Sonic Youth's drummer and
saw them through the rest of their DIY days until they were signed up by Geffen. Together
with their side projects and solo albums, the members have been responsible for a truely
stagering number of releases.
