Yo La Tengo debut new video for their cover of The Cure's "Friday I'm In Love"

Yo La Tengo have shared a new pre-apocalyptic video for their cover of The Cure's "Friday I'm In Love".

The cover features on YLT's Stuff Like That There album, which is a semi-sequel to their 1990 LP Fakebook - like that record, Stuff Like That There is a collection of reworked older tracks, cover versions, and new music. The album follows 2013's Fade, and sees the longtime-trio expand to a foursome with Ira Kaplan, Georgia Hubley and James McNew joined by Dave Schramm. Schramm's presence is the first time in over 30 years all four will tour together.

Stuff Like That There is out 28 August on Matador.
