Yo La Tengo to Release New Album 'This Stupid World' in February

Rock band Yo La Tengo have announced that their new album This Stupid World is due out February 10. Ahead of the release, they've shared its first single, "Fallout."

This Stupid World will consist of nine tracks, and will be the band's follow-up to 2020’s We Have Amnesia Sometimes. Comprised of Georgia Hubley, Ira Kaplan, and James McNew, the band self-produced the new LP, making it the "most live-sounding YLT album in years."

“Of course, times have changed for Yo La Tengo as much as they have for everyone else,” a press release reads. “In the past, the band has often worked with outside producers and mixers. They made This Stupid World all by themselves. And their time-tested judgment is both sturdy enough to keep things to the band’s high standards, and nimble enough to make things new.”

Yo La Tengo have also announced tour dates for North America and Europe. Tickets go on sale Friday, November 4 at 10am local time. You can find tour dates and ticket info via the band's website.
