Sonic Life is slated for release in 2023.

Sonic Youth’s Thurston Moore has a new memoir on the way. The book is titled Sonic Life and its publishing rights have been acquired by Faber in the UK and Doubleday in the US.

According to The Bookseller, a publishing industry title, Sonic Life will trace the “wild music and endless wonder” of Moore’s life and career. The official synopsis states: “From his infatuation and engagement with the 1970s punk and ‘no wave’ scenes in New York City, to the 1981 formation of his legendary rock group, to 30 years of relentless recording, touring, and musical experimentation, birthing the Nirvana-era of alternative rock, and beyond, it is all told via the personal prism of the author’s intensive archives and research.”
