Sonic Youth's 16th (quite satisfying) album The Eternal opens with the Yves Klein/Noise Nomads-referencing "Sacred Trickster," a track you may have seen performed live to Letterman. It's the briefest song on the album, a mix of art-rock elegance and feedback splutters, i.e. a good use of nods to French painters and Western Mass noisemakers. The video, directed by downtown fixture (and T.
