90s Jams #65: Yo La Tengo "Sugarcube" (1997)

Once again, there's nothing on Allmusic or Wikipedia that really works to describe this... YLT has released such a mammoth volume of material, and it's difficult to find stuff that I wouldn't recommend.. "Sugarcube" is one of the rare cases where their pop, drone, rock, and groove senses intersect. It's not only a brilliant (and accessible) song, but it also can easily be used to define their sound just as well as anything else throughout their 25+ year history.
