So each week, all these featured-release writeups get written on Sunday. The only reason this is worth mentioning here, in this review of Yo La Tengo's new self-released soundtrack collection, is that I can't think of a better time of said week to listen to these scores. From Ira Kaplan's VU's-a-Dead Man guitar reverberations to classic-if-expected full-band garage jams to brushes with jazz and classical orchestration, downtempo drum-machinery and even an awesome outright Neu! nod on Will Oldham vehicle Old Joy's end credits, with no apologies to the Q, this is my kind of Psychedelic Psunday.
