Yo La Tengo

New York-based art-rock trio with their truly original sound on the Matador Records label. 'They are a pop band, but don't just write pop songs; they write what can only be described as yo la tengo songs. They are like a three-cornered atom harnessing its energy to the point where blinding explosions are no longer necessary to emanate power.' As an interesting further point Yo La Tengo are one of only four acts to provide a version of the theme music for The Simpsons!
