Yo La Tengo
Summer Sun 2LP vinyl

Three years after 2000's brilliant And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside-Out, Yo La Tengo returned with Summer Sun, an album that's as settled and smooth as the previous one was inventive and eclectic.

Musically, Summer Sun continues the band's progression away from intricate, guitar-based pop both loud and soft and toward an arguably more sophisticated sound. This time around, the post-rock, Krautrock, and jazz influences the band introduced on I Can Hear the Heart and perfected on And Then Nothing dominate Summer Sun, giving it a hushed, polished feel.
