    Yo La Tengo have announced their new album, This Stupid World, out February 10th via Matador Records. As a preview, they’ve shared the single “Fallout,” and better yet, you’ll be able to catch them on tour in 2023 (grab tickets here).

    Spanning nine tracks, This Stupid World was made entirely by Yo La Tengo themselves instead of bringing in an outside producer or mixer. Recorded with the band’s current lineup of Ira Kaplan, Georgia Hubley, and James McNew, it’s billed as their most “live-sounding” album in years.

    “Fallout” is a contemplative track, as Kaplan looks for an escape from reality over fuzzed-out guitars. “I want to fall out of time,” he sings. “Reach back unwind/ Before it gets too loud.” Stream the track below.

    Ahead of Yo La Tengo’s 2023 tour, they have a string of dates at New York City’s Bowery Ballroom in celebration of Hanukkah. Next year’s trek kicks off on February 15th and will feature multiple nights in Seattle, Los Angeles, and Nashville, as well as dates in Philadelphia, Brooklyn, Chicago, and more. Yo La Tengo’s UK and Europe leg of the tour will begin in April and run through early May.

    See the full itinerary below. Tickets for the 2023 dates go on sale to the general public on Friday, November 4th at 10:00 a.m. local time via Ticketmaster.

    Yo La Tengo’s last album was the instrumental We Have Amnesia Sometimes, which dropped in 2020. Pre-orders for This Stupid World are ongoing. See the artwork and full tracklist below.
