Thurston Moore – Circulation

Thurston Moore

Thurston Moore is a man of specific talents. One of which is writing intensely kinetic material. His songs, as usual, have the uncanny ability to lead you outside of yourself. The material on the recently minted Demolished Thoughts album are unique for what is not evident. Gone are the waves of heady guitar reminiscent of Sonic Youth. The music is more folksy and nearer to the wide expanses and sun-dappled rivers of upstate New York, rather than the fast-paced and neon lit environs of NYC proper. Here the track “Circulation” sounds like a return to something more tranquil and introspective. I hear hints of Love & Rockets, Peter Murphy, and even a bit of The Pixies, all of which is imbued with a low-key whirling dervish of acoustic sound. I like it. I love it. I definitely want more of it. Peace.
