Just
in time for the weekend Yo La Tengo have
shared their cover of The Cure's 'Friday I'm In
Love'. The official video was premiered via NPR and shows a global apocalypse
captured by Director Jason
Wolliner.
Fresh from celebrating their 30th anniversary as one of the most beloved and adventurous bands in rock history, Yo La Tengo announce that they will release Stuff Like That There on Friday 28 August via Matador Records.
The
trio of Ira Kaplan, Georgia
Hubley and James McNew now return
as a quartet, reuniting with former member Dave
Schramm on electric guitar as they revisit the
original concept of their beloved Fakebook
(a mix of cover songs, “covers” of Yo La Tengo songs,
and brand new originals) on its 25th anniversary. This
unprecedented live set-up – Ira on acoustic guitar,
Georgia up-front on a small kit, and James on upright bass
– marks the first occasion of this particular Yo
La Tengo incarnation touring together (and since it
took them 31 years to get around to doing so, could very
well also be the last).
Stuff Like That
There is available to pre-order via iTunes, Google Play and from your local
independent record shop.

Stuff Like That There, penned by
