☆ Kim Gordon’s Coolest Act Yet
  + stars: | 2024-02-29 | by ( Lindsay Zoladz | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Plenty of people she loved attended her 60th birthday bash in New York, but she still felt unmoored. Gordon’s 70th birthday party last year, though, was another story entirely. For one thing, it was in Los Angeles, the city she’d grown up in and returned to in 2015. But also, as Gordon explained on a video call from her book-strewn home in late February, it doubled as a celebration of finishing her second solo album, “The Collective.”“It was kind of great to have done that on my 70th birthday,” she said and laughed from behind tinted sunglasses. (The title is partially inspired by Jennifer Egan’s novel “The Candy House.”) But left turns are business as usual for Gordon, a restlessly curious artistic polymath who has never settled for the conventional, expected or familiar.

☆ Phill Niblock, Dedicated Avant-Gardist of Music and Film, Dies at 90
  + stars: | 2024-01-12 | by ( Alex Williams | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
His partner, Katherine Liberovskaya, said he died in a hospital of heart failure after years of cardiac procedures. Mr. Niblock had no formal musical training. He served as the foundation’s sole director from 1985 until his death, and he was also the curator of the foundation’s record label, XI. His loft on Centre Street in Lower Manhattan served as a performance space for the foundation. It was also a social nexus for boundary-pushing musicians and composers like John Cage, Arthur Russell, David Behrman and Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth.

☆ Thurston Moore’s Electrifying History Lesson
  + stars: | 2023-10-19 | by ( Mark Yarm | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +3 min
“He and the band championed Beck, Mudhoney, Dinosaur Jr. and Nirvana” early on, he said. (She memorably howls her way through “Death Valley ’69,” Sonic Youth’s combustive first single, from 1984.) In October 2011, Sonic Youth’s label made the surprise announcement that Moore and Gordon had separated after 27 years of marriage. In the book, Moore shares a bare-bones version of what transpired — he had fallen in love with Eva Prinz, a book editor. If I got too much into that, that would be a critical focus, as it is with any memoir.
