Nothing interesting has ever happened in a Yo La Tengo song that I've heard, though plenty of 'dynamic' things have.

the ned r. post above reminds me that the real indie darling blast from the past everyone should hate on now is low. because c'mon, fuck low.

maria played one of their albums years ago and it kinda scarred me. i never wanted to hear them again. it was kinda creepy. that hushed upclose vocal thing on the album was too butterfly kisses for me. like you're too close dude just back away a little bit. for some reason low never bothered me when they did that. maybe cuz they sing better.

it's all in the church hymns

yo la tengo have a broader spectrum of sounds than that, scott. I agree that the deal you mention on e.g. "Autumn Sweater" can be a bit much. Low are awesome

actually, I meant "Our Way to Fall"

this may come down to different levels of spittle production
― Butt Trump tweet (Matt P), Tuesday, 22 January 2013 04:21 (eleven years ago) link
yeah, I just listened to some songs that I imagined weren't so close mic'd, and I was wrong. Even on "Cherry Chapstick" it's all whispery and close. I saw YLT live in Santa Barbara and it was a good show for me.
