I've been listening to an advance copy of Yo La Tengo's latest:
"I Can Hear the Heart Beating as One" for the last couple of days.
I'm not familiar with any of their previous albums, so I can't say
whether or not this "sounds like a Yo La Tengo album" but I definitely
can say that it is exceptional.

There are 16 tracks, a couple favorites are "Sugarcube" which contains
the line "sweeter than a drop of blood on a sugarcube", "Shadows"
which is a beautiful song reminiscent of Cowboy Junkies or Mazzy Star,
"Autumn Sweater."

Actually, lots of the songs hint at what may be influences to YLT:
Beatles, SonIC Youth, Cowboy Junkies, Lou Reed, Feelies... 

A friend here says this album recently got 4 stars from Rolling Stone...


Supposed to be on the racks April 22.

My favoriate YLT song is the (slightly unusual for them) pop song
"Upside Down".  From your description, I'd say that the new album
isn't too far different than their previous material.
