Sonic Youth “Mariah Carey And The Arthur Doyle Hand Cream” b/w Erase Errata “Glitter” American white 7″ (2003)
Sonic Youth were on point when saluting their heroes. Joni Mitchell, Madonna...and Mariah. Two out of three ain’t bad. Sonic Youth’s song about Mariah Carey was too on-point referencing her nervous breakdown and her dating Eminem that they were given notice to change its’ title. Erase Errata? A different story. Their direct reference to Mariah’s box-office disaster Glitter (2003) was the only thing tied to each other, as their hat-tip to the decorated vocalist sounded nothing recognizable. This was number one of Narnack Records’ Buddy Series, a concept which only lasted three records of indie and hipster sounds of 2003-2004, or as we like to call it: “peak hipster”.
1,500 white 7″ copies of this dream team were released.
