SY are the subject of a four page interview in the May 2006 issue of the UK's Record Collector magazine. The article concentrates mainly on the Geffen era, and has barely a mention of Rather Ripped, but is a fairly good read for the SY newbie who wants a brief beginners guide to the period that picks up where the "Our Band Could Be Your Life" book leaves off.

Interesting fact: When Kim lived in LA, before meeting Thurston, she went out with Danny Elfman, who wrote the them tune to The Simpsons, which SY later covered for the Homerpalooza episode.

Danny Elfman also does all the music for Tim Burton movies...

...except for Ed Wood, which I think is his best. Not that it has anything to do with Elfman; I love his scores.

That's pretty funny... I remember Thurston dissing Oingo Boingo (Elfman's old 80s band) in an issue of Sonic Death back in the day (1994?)

I think she probably meant that she was killed by the manson family.
