YO LA TENGO – There’s A Riot Going On – 2 x LP € (Matador)

Double LP comes on coloured vinyl.

A play on the title of the Sly And The Family Stone album ‘There’s a Riot Goin’ On’ – an album of dark, brooding energy that came out in a time of unrest in the USA. Now, under similar circumstances, Yo La Tengo have issued a record with the same name but with a different force, an
album that proposes an alternative to anger and despair. Their first proper full-length since 2013’s ‘Fade’, ‘There’s a Riot Going On’ is an expression of freedom and sanity and emotional expansion, a declaration of common humanity as liberating as it is soft-spoken.
