Start with I Can Hear the Heart Beating As One.

Since this is a Yo La Tengo thread already, can someone also recommend a YLT album that sounds most like the song Green Arrow off the aforementioned album

And Then the Nothing Turned Itself Inside Out is great too


actually I don't think they've put out a bad album.

but the music sucks because the keyboards don't have the cold/mechanical sound they had but a wannabe techno sound that it's pathetic for Rammstein standars.

They did some soundtrack for an underwater nature film which I remember reading was nothing but their instrumental/ambient style songs such as 'Green Arrow.'

Other than that, Summer Sun and And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside Out have the highest ratio of 'calm' to 'noise' on YLT albums that I can think of.

If I were to work it out I'm sure that Summer Sun would have at least three of my five favourite Yo La Tengo songs on it. It's a great record.

I think if you like one, you will like them all.

I love I Can Hear the Heart Beating As One but I don't like Ride the Tiger.

I quite like their newest, actually....but I would never steer someone away from I Can Hear The Heart Beating as One.
