Sonic Youth, formed in New York City in 1981, is a highly influential band that emerged from the No-Wave music scene. Comprised of Thurston Moore, Lee Ranaldo, Kim Gordon, and Richard Edson initially, they later added drummer Steve Shelley. With their roots in experimental music and collaborations with Glenn Branca, Sonic Youth has consistently pushed boundaries throughout their career.

Over the years, Sonic Youth recorded 15 albums together and embarked on various side and solo projects. Their work is known for its challenging and innovative nature, making them one of the most intriguing bands of their time. The album "Sonic Nurse," featuring Jim O'Rourke's talents alongside the band members', further solidified their reputation.

In 2011, Sonic Youth went on an indefinite hiatus following the separation of Kim Gordon and Thurston Moore after nearly three decades of marriage. Despite this setback, their impact on alternative rock remains undeniable.

Choice collection of B-sides, rarities, alternate takes and previously unreleased tracks dating back to 1993. New York’s most influential avant-garde rock band, Sonic Youth, follow up their critically acclaimed 2006 release, Rather Ripped, with a special set sure to please fans and completists. 

The Destroyed Room: B-Sides And Rarities, a collection of near-hidden Sonic Youth gems hand-picked by the band, brings together songs from throughout the band’s tenure at Geffen Records. Focusing on tracks previously available only on limited-edition compilations, vinyl-only releases, or as B-Sides or international singles, The Destroyed Room also features material that has never before been released.
