Contrary to many Sonic Youth albums, drum machines and samplers are the foundation of the recording, but Sonic Youth's trademark dissonance and experimental methods still permeate throughout.[2] The album featured a new version of an early Sonic Youth song, "Making the Nature Scene". Track 2, "(Silence)", is a titular one minute gap of silence intended as a tribute to John Cage. Mike Watt's only contribution is a version of Madonna's "Burnin' Up," on which he sang and played all instruments.[3] ArtworkAccording to the liner notes of the deluxe edition of Daydream Nation: "The album cover [of Ciccone Youth], a b&w xerox enlargement of Madonna's face, was a brilliant and contemporary design. Sonic Youth had utilized found images in album covers before, but this was testing the limit. We sent copies of the vinyl album to Warners to be passed on to Madonna via her sister who worked in the art department there. Word came back that she had no problem with it acknowledging she remembered the band from her NYC Danceteria days".[4] Reception{{Album ratings| rev1 = AllMusic | rev1Score = {{Rating|4|5}}[1] | rev2 = Mojo | rev2score = {{Rating|3|5}}[5] | rev3 = Pitchfork | rev3Score = 7.8/10[6] | rev4 = Rolling Stone | rev4score = {{Rating|4|5}}[7] | rev5 = Uncut | rev5score = {{Rating|4|5}}[8] | rev6 = The Village Voice | rev6score = C[9] }} The album received generally mixed reviews from critics. Trouser Press wrote "the joke doesn't translate, and the disc comes across as a self-indulgent mess".[10] Track listingAll songs by Ciccone Youth, except where noted.
