Screaming Fields of Sonic Love is a compilation of songs culled from Sonic Youth's various releases from the 1980s. The tracks feature samples from each of their major '80s albums but run in reverse chronological order, starting with songs from the band's 1988 masterwork Daydream Nation and ending with a track from their eponymous first album from 1982. The release of this compilation coincided with the release of a music video collection of the same name, featuring all of Sonic Youth's music videos from the 1980s.
