Rolling Stone Q&A: Thurston Moore on Chelsea Light Moving, Occupy Wall Street and the Future of Sonic Youth

Rolling Stone: Were you surprised by Kim's recent interview in Elle in which talked about your marital problems?
Thurston Moore: I'm not gonna talk about it. There's no aspect of that I will ever talk about.
Rolling Stone: So is Chelsea Light Moving your full-time band now?
Thurston Moore: It is. I think names define things, and I'm gonna keep the name whether I have the same members or not, and I'll keep it as my name for my rock & roll music. If Sonic Youth ever plays again, that will be Sonic Youth, obviously.
Rolling Stone: Is that a possibility at this point?
Thurston Moore: Um, yeah. I would never say I don't see why not. Life changes from time to time and who knows what will happen in the future. Your crystal ball is about as clear as my crystal ball is. Really–seriously. It's not something I think about right now. It's in stasis, for reasons that are obvious.

Zoom ologymusic: Download “Burroughs” By Thurston Moore’s New Band, Chelsea Light Moving So, um, remember that hot minute on Wednesday when it looked like hey, maybe Sonic Youth aren’t really gone forever because, look, Kim Gordon and Thurston Moore have maybe put aside enough of their differences to record YOKOKIMTHURSTON, a collaborative new album with Yoko Ono that’ll hit stores and playlists on September 25? Remember that? I wouldn’t get your hopes too far up, fellow Sonic Youth fanatics—surprise, surprise, it looks like Thurston’s got another (maybe) full-time gig. Download Chelsea Light Moving’s debut song “Burroughs” right here…
