SonicYouth The royal couple of the alternative music scene and of course the soul of Sonic Youth, Kim Gordon and Thurston Moore announced their separation after 27 years of marriage.

Gordon and Moore began almost simultaneously the common course in life and music, as they formed the Sonic Youth shortly after the start of their relationship in 1981. They got married in 1984 and had a daughter, 17 year-old Coco, while Sonic Youth have released 16 albums to date, the last being 'Eternal' in 2009 .

Like most cases were music couples reach separation, so in this case, the future of Sonic Youth looks cloudy.

The announcement issued by their record company Matador Records indicates that although Sonic Youth will be together for the concerts already scheduled for November in Latin America, the band plans after the tour are uncertain.

The plans, according to the statements by Thurston Moore just last May at the NME, were a likely recording of a new album in 2011.

We however will love them forever ...
