Sadly I'm undereducated on their whole discography. This one and I Can Hear... have both gotten a ton of play since I first discovered them in the early aughts; most of their other stuff remains a mystery to me.
You should grab Painful right now. Its just so good.

Electropura is a lesser praised but also highly enjoyable early 90s offering from YLT.

I love this band a lot. Keeping with the thread topic, Fade has one of my favorite albums openers.

I guess this is the only Yo La Tengo thread?

Anyway, you know what's a lost gem in their massive catalog? They Shoot, We Score! I've never really listened to it before today, but it's a great listen if you really enjoy the obligatory instrumental passages on their "proper" albums. Kind of reminds me of Ry Cooder's Paris, TX score or Neil Young's work on Dead Man. Soft guitar patterns with plenty of wide open spaces and breathing room.

I Heard You Looking from Extra Painful just changed my life during my treadmill run tonight.

This is my favorite record of theirs since And Then Nothing..., and that's just after one listen. I scored a new one for the regular rotation!
I can agree with that. Although Season Of The Shark may be my favourite track of theirs. Maybe.

How in the hell did I miss their recent album?

Just saw my local record store Instagram about tickets on sale for their tour. WTF? Where have I been?

It would really be nice if the title of this thread changed to something more all-encompassing. I still don't think there's an actual YLT thread on this board. Mods?
