WHERE MUSIC LISTENS TO YOU

Yo La Tengo dig out their AUTUMN SWEATER

Posted about 1 year ago



Its a very cool early Auntumn morning here. As I step out to get my morning newspapers you can listen to Yo La Tengo's "Autumn Sweater" . I post this for good friend & felow fan poebegone.

It is difficult to understand how such a long-lived band with the incredible catalog they have to fly under so many radar screens for so long. Ira Kaplan & Georgia Hubley et al have explored the sonic & psychological landscape of late twentieth & early twenty firsy century music. From blistering squalls of corrosive feedback to pastoral meditations on a droning note YLT have pushed the envelope to extremes and back, their fans following in rapt delight.

    This song is "subtlely awesome", IMHO  Mark, you have to listen again. (I know you're lurking)

    Doomsayer, relaxed yes, but there's an underlying tension.

    Dzendvokh,  picking a favorite track by YLT is an impossibility.  It would depend on the day, the time of day, my mood, etc etc etc.  They have such a great canon.

    Excellent song, one of my faves of YLT as well.  I think my all time fave of theirs is Deeper into Movies though. 

    And I just put this on my halloween mix on mixwit...
