Yo La Tengo (@TheRealYLT)  is back in the studio recording the follow-up to their stellar 2009 album, Popular Songs. The trio from Hoboken recently played the Primavera Sound festival in Spain and now find themselves in the studio, presumably in Chicago. For a little over a week they’ve sent daily tweets featuring a picture from inside the studio.  As the tweets below show, they’re spending plenty of time digging through the cool gear and artifacts lying around the studio, while also responding to Emily White and taking in a Mets game against the Cubs at Wrigley field.
