Yo La Tengo Live @ National Sawdust | Pitchfork Live

[@bernardpariset233]

The best band in the world

[@Timinator257]

How can you not be mesmerized by this band!?

[@andresmiller5269]

Yo La Tengo is where the heart is

[@alannaanne]

Watching this December 19, 2024 and having a really hard week. Thank you to my friend for sending this to me. 💕💫🎁 thank you to my friend who first introduced me to the band in 2011. How time flies.

[@micahb2627]

“For you, too” is majestic.

[@Marianasousawally]

It's such a beautiful song ...

[@ThePsychedelicWave]

just thought so. wow.

[@dhruvboghey1]

♥️

[@pdg887]

Heard the opening drone, hit "like." Love these guys. They haven't lost a single step.

[@mertkaygusuz5512]

20th minute of this video makes me hung on a moment where I was happy, free and innocent... Humble, elegant, pure musical sincerity in the finest level... God bless you.

[@mvg952]

I am only about 16 minutes into this, thought I'd enjoy some jams while folding laundry... I am devastated... such beautiful music

[@Giantcappuccino]

Something so incredible about "For You Too", like being transported back to 1994.

[@mmundle941]

One of my favorite songs, needs more love

[@steveadams2576]

Indeed😊

[@cogniktive1147]

It cannot be overstated just how good this band is and how much I love them. They have their own distinct YLT sound regardless of song or album or era.

[@gurrgurr1023]

To me they are the perfect band. I love this so much.

[@chezdodo8619]

Agreed! They're incredible.

[@austinsideburns]

Can't belive they have been going so long, their sound has aged like a fine wine. Those song transitions though 😍

[@DjWellDressedMan]

29 Years ago and about 30 seconds into “Barnaby, Hardly Working” and I wanted only more. Yo La Tengo is the example of how an amazing band produces pure Music, and yet stays local.

[@mantra3000]

Listening to them and seeing them play you could easily forget how damn fucking hard it is to sound so good live.

[@davidjennystudentshortfilm3010]

Love these guys! For my money Painful is one of the most underrated records of all time!

[@alixchi]

100% agreed

[@calwiggums3319]

Can't wait for Spring Tour! Really psyched to hear the new tunes.. This performance is a real treat, so thanks to all who helped put this together.. Yo La Tengo are truly the most under-rated band; such a distinctive & original back catalog.. And yes, _Painful_ has never recieved any of the due credit it deserves. I highly recommend everyone interested to catch 'em live in person. The way the trio switch between instruments during their set is really something to experience. Such a brilliant band.

[@yummyjackalmeat]

I liked yo la tengo casually in high school (late 90s early 2000s). I picked up painful and didn't get it. it sat in my big ol CD case for a few years, when i needed ylt in my life i wanted to listen to "i can feel our hearts..."but a few years into adulthood after some tough times and heartbreak, I popped in Painful and experienced such extacy (no drugs involved). That first track alone...beautiful. It's now my fav ylt album

[@nervousbreakdowns2135]

4 words. I HEARD YOU LOOKING

[@sonicgrub]

Nailed It!

[@mcbassguitar9899]

I really enjoy watching Georgia play drums... :-)

[@andresjacome296]

this session should be on vinyl

[@syllablesavvy]

The first nine minutes are total bliss.

[@nathjcaldeira]

i love them so much 😭 fell in love when I was 16, in 2014. went to their concert the same year and never looked back. they really marked all of my adolescence and they are such great, amazing musicians.

[@fugamantew]

"If you like bands that suck you are going to hate this band"

[@jeffbeamer9882]

Hey! It's John McEnroe! :-)

[@andresmiller5269]

amazing guitar solo!

[@Countachockula]

I love this band so much!

[@christianlesurfmusic]

This was my first exposure to Yo La Tengo, and this album still remains to be my favourite. While other people will prefer their more acclaimed albums (I Can Hear the Heart, Electr-O-Pura, And Then Nothing etc) this album struck a chord with me in a way not many other albums have. We love you Yo La Tengo

[@davidyohalem629]

They come as such a surprise that I think everyone loves their album of first exposure best. For me, it was Electro-Pura when it was hot off the presses. Recommended by a small CD shop in Madison, Wisconsin called the B-side. "You should really listen to this," said the knowledgeable dropout clerk. So I did.

[@FERMUSICA]

I prefer this than the album, they are just great performers!!! The energy that they had in in this and the transitions between songs really make it something exceptional and amazing, it is also excellent to sleep to

[@jtn191]

This is one of my favorite YLT recordings. Up there with I Am Not Afraid...

[@IndiErik]

they've been my favorite band since I discovered them in 1995. So consistent with seemingly endless creativity and ideas!

[@davidyohalem629]

Electro-pura was my favorite disc that year. Found it in a hole-in-the-wall music shop in Madison, WI called the B-side.

[@squareinsquare2078]

The greatest of all the bands. Pure magic.

[@duncansamways1363]

One of the best bands around. Got tickets to two shows in May.

[@avisualdevice8803]

seeing 'em in September!

[@denisvertinsky7628]

So here we go. One of my favorite bands from 80's and 90's.

[@peponh8343]

of the few currents bands of today that continue to amaze you and put you goose bumps, just great, you never get tired of listening to them and they always have something to offer.

[@osianllyr6361]

46:58 Ira walks over to the drum set for one (1) cymbal hit

[@sergiostabinsky4627]

jajajaj ja crazy genius

[@duncanwcraig9668]

new zealander in australia here. farking love YLT what a band got introduced to them in 2008 in nyc. seen them live down under.

[@keatonlindsey1681]

Yo La Tengo have achieved mastery of their craft. Sounding the best they ever have, and showing that there is still room for experimentation and new sound in the finely worn niche that is their domain

[@stanleypratt3383]

I absolutely adore this band. They are amazing.

[@oscarperez7679]

Ellos la tienen

[@franciscotomasmendezmatura4796]

Oscar Perez JAJAA la weaa xD la tienes ;)

[@padillanqui]

Sisas

[@zarahsantoshernandez9122]

Ellos la tienen, tú la tienes, Todos la tenemos

[@sethmoore8484]

seguro.

[@bigfatmel74]

00:00 You Are Here 10:05 Forever 16:25 For You too 23:12 Shades of Blue 27:45 Let's Do It Wrong 32:05 She May, She Might 37:20 jam sesh into Out of Pool 39:30 Out of Pool 44:40 Ashes 51:00 Here You Are (not sure if the outro song will have a smooth small start around 49:10) i took random stabs at guessing these song proper starts-they're phasing each song into the next as they switch instruments onstage. i highly recommend experiencing it like this. it's the entire new album, so excited for it

[@johntbd]

bigfat mel Thanks Mel. I have been trying to make chapter markers without luck. Any help? Thanks again.

[@bigfatmel74]

not sure if i have the power, seems that Pitchfork used my markers in the description so I guess I'm right? i edited it again with other markers I saw in the comments

[@anon4449]

thank you!

[@anon4449]

experiencing it how?

[@bernhardsart]

I love the new album too!!! Big Thanks for Posting!!!

[@pj_day]

greatest band in the world

[@ignatzly]

obvs

[@patricksanders6597]

This video is my happy place.

[@royalewcheese11]

Wow! That was a sonic experience.

[@perfectblackswan]

So much better on stage with all their loops in the background... They should perfom this way way more often, I wish they would...

[@yellowclouds3722]

Forever blows me away, so pure, intense & deep. Best song i know about getting older in a relationship

[@cogniktive1147]

Didn't even let the video play. Already hammered that thumbs up.

[@pjr5913]

these guys blow sonic old out of the water any day

[@johncallahan6401]

Brilliance. Like meeting up with an old friend...

[@jonnymac481]

I love the delicate vocal over the merge of sounds coming from these guys, superb work and great use of knowing when to play and when not too.

[@Darrylizer1]

Mr. Kaplan's new combo was the surprise hit of the parent-teacher conference!

[@darylcumming7119]

Thanks even with inappropriate ads in the middle of the songs.

[@AMOW42]

well this is absolutely glorious

[@sadpoppony]

best gift of the day

[@kingblee1]

I've just sat mesmerized for an hour...amazing talent! They don't seem to visit the deep south---so this is probably as close to live as I will ever see them--Thanks guys!

[@bmx3347]

I love that they use an old school ipod for the beat in the second song!

[@Barthezrh]

¡Qué belleza! Los esperamos en Argentina... con dolor, nostalgias y disturbios en marcha.

[@finaldelay18]

Rafael Lander el mejor comentario.

[@finaldelay18]

[@AzureQ95]

[@shorthands6082]

lmao nice reference

[@wtburns01]

Just caught them in Omaha a week ago. Story of Yo la Tengo to end the rock set. Was this epic, mebbe more.

[@sbingham1979]

Love this band. Loved their album "Fade" -- something about the sounds of their music makes me want to cry: in a good way -- like a mix of melancholia and joy.

[@andygarcia4960]

Ira has aged so well. He even wears the same clothes he prob wore in 1987

[@micahnewman]

Can't believe he's 61.

[@tymmac007]

That shirt IS from 1987!!

[@elbowspeak]

I saw them in '88 and can confirm

[@CurrieNerd]

Don't most of us wear the same clothes as 1987??

[@Ocean-vp3ow]

This performance is so wonderful. Otherwordly! I love Yo La Tengo❤❤❤

[@fourtanierphilippe2814]

Yo La Tengo... you rocked my life and rolled my dice....Tx

[@TonyGmaroc]

Utterly beautiful Utterly mesmerising

[@NicholasOsella]

HOW DOES THIS NOT HAVE MORE VIEWS

[@Ca-se-passe-la-hautFr]

Yo La Tengo s'avère être le meilleur groupe des années 1990, 2000 et 2010.... pour ne pas dire 2020. Ce live est vraiment excellent.

[@jeffbeamer9882]

Hey! That's French! :-)

[@bernhardsart]

Absolutely Majestic!!!!

[@lucavalentin8515]

majestuoso

[@jeffbeamer9882]

Many thanks. Got my tickies to the SOLD OUT show in ATL. Color me excited.

[@ronggearrob9622]

Love YLT and this set!

[@vanmahler6282]

When i first saw Y.L.T. live i"m on LSD but it was a very strange and happy trip :)

[@greensombrero3641]

What a fantastic group and the music takes me somewhere unfamiliar but bueno vista.

[@dariuszwolnica6982]

Slucham od roku, i dalej nie ma konca. Pozdro dla wszystkich fanow.

[@shadyweeze]

This new album is gonna be great

[@micahnewman]

Wonderful. This makes up a little for their not coming to Texas on tour this year.

[@hagharris7030]

Incredible band, diverse, sharp and always got a few surprises up their colective sleeves. Gutted to have missed them recently due to Covid. Plenty of time to listen though.

[@martinvoltage9393]
