>Sonic Youth found themselves well received in Europe, but the New York press largely ignored the local noise rock scene. Eventually, as the press began to take notice of the genre, Sonic Youth was grouped along with bands like Big Black, the Butthole Surfers and Pussy Galore under the "pigfucker" label by Village Voice editor Robert Christgau. After a substandard September concert in New York, another critic from The Village Voice panned it. Gordon wrote a scornful letter to the newspaper, criticizing it for not supporting its local music scene, to which Christgau responded by saying they are not obligated to support them. Moore retaliated by renaming the song "Kill Yr Idols" to "I Killed Christgau With My Big Fucking Dick", before the two eventually sorted out their differences amicably

I didn't know Mr Moore was so based.

seriously? he's probably the most important musician of the last 30 years in terms of bringing good underground music into the public knowledge. his own music was just okay though

It's trashy niche music, why *should* a magazine support them just because they're local? Christgau's response was straight on, and those Sonic Youth idiots are just being bratty socialists.

Because we're better than most of it. There's only like four other places as culturally or economically relevant.
