Ride the Tiger

Yo La Tengo

Ride the Tiger is the debut studio album by American indie rock band Yo La Tengo. It was released in 1986 by record label Coyote. The Washington Post called the album "unpretentious and emotionally convincing," writing that the band's "chief asset is not (Ira) Kaplan's flat, intimate vocals, but their guitars, which are finely textured and finely tuned to the moody, personal resonances of their songs." Trouser Press wrote that "it’s originals like 'The Cone of Silence' and 'The Forest Green' that make Ride the Tiger such a pleasure." Read more on Last.fm.
