From Wikipedia:

I Can Hear the Heart Beating as One is the eighth studio album by the American indie rock band Yo La Tengo, released on April 22, 1997, by Matador Records. It was produced by Roger Moutenot and recorded at House of David in Nashville, Tennessee. The album expands the guitar-based pop of its predecessor Electr-O-Pura to encompass a variety of other music genres, including bossa nova, krautrock, and electronic music. Most of the songs on the album deal with melancholy emotions and range from short and fragile ballads to long and open-ended dissonance.

Upon release, I Can Hear the Heart Beating as One reached number 19 on the Billboards Heatseekers Albums chart, becoming the first Yo La Tengo album to enter the charts. Three songs from the album, “Autumn Sweater”, “Sugarcube”, and the cover “Little Honda“, were released as singles. The album received widespread acclaim from music critics, who praised the band’s ability to successfully expand the boundaries of nearly any pop style. The album is widely regarded as the band’s best work and is frequently included on several publications’ best album lists. In 2020, Rolling Stone included it on its list of The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time as no. 423.
