Charles Hayward and Thurston Moore - Improvisations

The Guardian 60

(Care in the Community)

Since he and Kim Gordon split, effectively bringing Sonic Youth to an end, Thurston Moore has been living in north London, where he’s been a regular fixture in the city’s improv scene, popping up alongside the likes of Steve Noble, the Thing and Spiritualized’s Jason Pierce. Here he jams with This Heat drummer Charles Hayward, pulling out rough skeins of noise from his guitar as Hayward lays down driving glam-rock rhythms, speeding up into jittery post-punk.
