Fall Favs: Yo La Tengo - I Can Hear The Heart Beating As One

A mash of casually confident autumn gems:
  1. "Return to Hot Chicken" – 1:38
  2. "Moby Octopad" – 5:48
  3. "Sugarcube" – 3:21
  4. "Damage" – 4:39
  5. "Deeper into Movies" – 5:23
  6. "Shadows" – 2:27
  7. "Stockholm Syndrome" – 2:51
  8. "Autumn Sweater" – 5:18
  9. "Little Honda" – 3:07
  10. "Green Arrow" – 5:43
  11. "One PM Again" – 2:25
  12. "The Lie and How We Told It" – 3:19
  13. "Center of Gravity" – 2:42
  14. "Spec Bebop" – 10:40
  15. "We're an American Band" – 6:25
  16. "My Little Corner of the World" – 2:24
One of my all-time favorites, this excursion covers a multitude of sounds and genres while still creating a flowing, consistent atmosphere held strong through the last notes. The feedback solos, shoegaze tones, and lyrical content make this album sound unique as hell, but like something as classic as Coke. Lots of great memories with this album around this time of year. This will conclude this year's fall favs. Link in comments.
