Three years after 2000's brilliant And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside-Out, Yo La Tengo returned with Summer Sun, an album that's as settled and smooth as the previous one was inventive and eclectic. Musically, Summer Sun continues the band's progression away from intricate, guitar-based pop both loud and soft and toward an arguably more sophisticated sound. This time around, the post-rock, Krautrock, and jazz influences the band introduced on I Can Hear the Heart and perfected on And Then Nothing dominate Summer Sun, giving it a hushed, polished feel. When the band does get a little livelier, they deliver some memorable moments, such as the percolating Little Eyes; the cute, poppy The Season of the Shark; and Today Is the Day, a Georgia Hubley song that's nearly as gorgeous as Shadows or Nowhere Near.
