After years on Geffen Records, Sonic Youth return to an indie label with their sixteenth studio album. "The Eternal" is a supercharged rocker, recalling aspects of the Evol-Sister-Daydream Nation holy trinity, but with cleaner, louder production and more straightforward momentum. With Pavement's Mark Ibold joining on bass, and producer John Agnello back at the controls, "The Eternal" takes the melodic songwriting of 2006's "Rather Ripped" and slams down the accelerator pedal.

Twelve tunes that are a fireworks display of Sonic Youth touchstones. From the primal nowave attack of its earliest days, to the radical chording and song structures of its 90s period, to the more focused and contemporary explorations of the last five years.

The Eternal was the band's highest-charting album of their career in the United States, peaking at No. 18 on the Billboard 200.

The cover art for The Eternal is a painting by the late, great American folk artist John Fahey.
