It’s Election Day here in the United States, and rather than tell our American readers to get out and vote, we’ll let Thurston Moore do the honor. Posted above is a 30-second PSA that Sonic Youth contributed to the Rock the Vote campaign during the 1992 presidential election. Set to the strains of Dirty standout “Youth Against Facism,” Moore intones, “If you live in America, you’re free to vote — and free to protest. … Don’t take freedom for granted. Vote to keep it strong.”
