For a band that has been rocking for nearly 40 years, Yo La Tengo still sounds like they are just getting started.

On their new album, This Stupid World, one of the most consistently good bands in the indie lane are speeding with glee; lively and rambunctious. It’s a focused album that looks at the world with equally pragmatic realism and stoic cynicism, while still jamming out and throwing in a killer solo.

The world may be stupid, but at least we can rock. Check in all week as we listen to the new Yo La Tengo record, This Stupid World, as The Current’s Album of the Week.
