After 30 years I finally decided to watch 1991: The Year Punk Broke but I only lasted about 10 minutes.
BUT.
It served to remind me that while I've never particularly cared for Sonic Youth's particular brand of dissonance, Teen Age Riot will always be in my own "summer teenage heartache song" Hall of Fame (see them open with it on my first trip to New York in 1992!!!) I will never, ever think of my first visit to NYC in the Summer of 1992 without thinking of Sonic Youth, or the fact that them opening with Teen Age Riot is one of my Top 10 live rock moments of all time 🤗🎸🎸🎸🕺
Just now thinking to ask: why is it "Teen Age" and not "teenage"? 🤔🤷♂️
