Description

Their first official double album, and their last before signing to a major label, 1988's Daydream Nation was a critical success that earned Sonic Youth substantial acclaim and a major label deal. Several promotional singles were released from the album, including "Teen Age Riot" which charted on Billboard's newly created Modern Rock Tracks chart at number 20.
Daydream Nation was Sonic Youth's sixth album, and their first double LP, clocking in at just over 70 minutes. This was their last album recorded for an "independent" label (though The Whitey Album was released afterwards, it was ready to go prior to Daydream's conception), and was arguably the record that drew the strongest major label attention. It kicks off with the anthemic "Teenage Riot," again pairing Kim and Thurston vocally, and never lets up, boasting an unprecedented three Lee songs, another Mike Watt appearance (on the solemn piano/amp burnout collage "Providence"), and the sprawling "Trilogy" which closes the record. Three singles were released from the album, along with various live versions of "Silver Rocket," and all four songs had video clips filmed.
