Meanwhile, Back at The Ranch

A few summers ago, I slavishly read Vincent Bugliosi's true crime classic "Helter Skelter," and got completely intrigued by the saga (much to the pronounced chagrin of my wife). It's just such a compellingly bizarre chapter in American history. In any case, it seems there may be more to the story than we all previously thought, given the new speculation of undiscovered graves back at the Manson Family's Death Valley ranch. In honor of this grisly devlopment, herewith an old chestnut from Sonic Youth (before they became entirely boring and wanky). This clip was directed in suitably gorey fashion by transgressive shutterbug Richard Kern. Oh, and it's NOT SAFE FOR WORK, by the way. Crank it.
