IMHO, Kim Gordon's contributions to Sonic Youth and beyond (fashion, visual arts, acting and, even, an author) are generally underrated. And even in her 70's, she's still vibrant and pushing forward musically, as demonstrated by her most recent LP, 2024's, "The Collective". Truly, an inspiration to/an influence on many.

@Sonictroubadour @historyofpunkrock Absolutely. She’s done so many wonderfully creative things, and rarely gets the attention she deserves. She’s one of the reasons I became a musician.

Who the fuck dares underrating Kim Gordon ?
Let me know so I can peacefully go and break their knees.
