Though as adept at atonal art grunge improvisation as his Sonic Youth colleagues of three decades, Ranaldo uses the New York experimentalists’ hiatus to deliver his most conventional album, Last Night On Earth, stretching suede denim 70s pop rock shapes, that Sonic Youth would have shredded, into slow-burning psychedelic epics.
The closing pairing of Ambulancer and Blackt Out plough familiar modal drones, but played with a fringe-jacketed ’60s folk rock flavor.
Ranaldo comes alive.
