Sonic Youth guitarist Thurston Moore is planning to open his own publishing house, said ClashMusic. Musician wants to publish books written by his close friends and those he admires the most in this world; those who have influenced his ideas. This guy is already well known for his knowledge of literature, especially among Sonic Youth fans. One of the first publishing experiences within his project is going to be a book by Raymond Pattibon who had previously co-worked with the band in the past; he particularly designed an album cover for their “Goo” album. As ClashMusic notes, Moore’s publishing house, which is now called Ecstatic Peace Library will unite all Pettibone’s art works. For those who are not very familiar with his art may recall black and white cartoons, or at least something of that nature. It’s already planned that Ecstatic Peace Library will start working by the end of 2009, and may become closely related to the Ecstatic Peace! record label. Ecstatic Peace! was opened in 1981 by Moore and produced a lot of interesting bands among which are Be Your Own Pet, Awesome Color, Violent Soho, Black Helicopter and many others. In other words, Moore is more than just a musician, he keeps on producing and creating everywhere and all the time.
