The band makes me smile! Ira is such a great guitarist.

I love Yo La Tengo. I'm looking forward to checking this one out.

I have to agree with what somebody said above. After And then Nothing..., they lost some of their spark, for me. I hope this is a return to form.

From the promo copy, it seems they make somewhat of a return to their electric trio form while still doing a lot of the things they did on summer sun.

The songs I've heard from it sound pretty good.
I've always thought that more sonic youth fans would be yo la tengo fans

baby bulldog · 08.14.2006, 06:35 PM

I saw em on their last American tour and was pretty blown away.The show was nearly 2 and a half hours.Switching off instruments and shit.They were great.Did an endless cover of Sun Ra's Nuclear War.Georgia can really pound the skins.

gmku · 09.12.2006, 09:52 AM

I'm getting this today if I can find it on vinyl. Anyone else?

I love this band.

gmku · 09.12.2006, 10:02 AM

Must not be many YLT fans among the SY set.

lunberg · 09.12.2006, 11:54 AM

Be reassured I'm not the hugest YLT fan out there but I'll check it out soon enough (not sure it's in record stores in france though...).

I like their earlier sound better though (stuuf like painful electr o pura...).

gmku · 09.12.2006, 11:56 AM

I've read reviews that say some of the new one sounds like painful, etc.

gmku · 09.12.2006, 12:11 PM

& I figure any band who appears on the season finale of Gilmore Girls is deserving of my attention.

Tickerwelly · 09.13.2006, 02:03 PM

I can't believe Summer Son gets shit on so much. That has to be my favorite thing they've done so far. I haven't heard the new one yet though.

gmku · 09.13.2006, 02:09 PM

Seriously? Do you have most of the rest? I keep seeing that one in the vinyl bins (Summer...), but I've always passed on it based on how it's been shat upon.

krastian · 09.13.2006, 11:47 PM

I really like it even though it seems a bit long......more bang for yr buck though.

RockerNino · 09.14.2006, 12:56 AM

the first track is especially good.

cryptowonderdruginvogue · 09.14.2006, 02:36 AM

The new album is deinfetly closer to the Painful/Electr-o-pura sound than the last two (neither of which I particuarly liked). The closest comparison would be to I Can Feel the Heart Beating as One. It is definetly a great album.

cryptowonderdruginvogue · 09.14.2006, 06:28 PM

i really like the album

schizophrenicroom · 09.14.2006, 07:21 PM

"pass the hatchet" is my favorite. it's nice and long. it's a nice solid album.

best yo la tengo song is "drug test", though. overall.

_slavo_ · 09.15.2006, 03:07 AM

Painful is a wonderful CD
one of my overally favourite CDs of all time

Gulasch Noir · 09.15.2006, 04:24 AM

summer sun
