View More By Yeah Yeah Yeahs Our ReviewThe Yeah Yeah Yeahs’ second album further refines the band’s anarchist sound. Just as their debut album, 2003’s Fever To Tell, modified and sculpted the approach and energy of their early EPs, here the band transcend beyond their power trio schematic and explore the sonic possibilities of the recording studio in greater depth. This attention to detail never derails into the artsy shtick that you might expect from a band that’s toured with the White Stripes and Jon Spencer Blues Explosion and often sounds as if they’ve been personally tutored by Sonic Youth and PJ Harvey. Instead, the extra textures and expanded dynamics mean that a song such as “Fancy” transforms into a tug of war, its throbbing keyboard notes battling singer Karen O’s quavering screams until the band retreats to near silence, or that the static and sirens that set up “Phenomena” give way to brutal powerchords, a choir of swooning voodoo voices and an ingratiating chorus. Even their sweetest moment, “Cheated Hearts,” keeps an ominous tonal howl underpinning the girl group heartbreak of its melodic heart.. Customer ReviewsSexy, Exciting & Unique Album (5 stars)I hope people don't keep themselves from digging this album based solely on the fact that it's not as "hard" as their past efforts. The Yeah Yeah Yeahs established themselves as very unique performers who love to and are great at experimenting and pushing boundries- not a band that's pigeonholed themselves into ONE sound in ONE genre. "Show Your Bones" is a perfect example of this and is really a showcase of what's so gre Good Very Good (4 stars) I personally don't like the Yeah Yeah Yeahs louder stuff, particularly the single Gold Lion. It just does not do much for me. But the thing I absolutley love is there darker more toned down songs, that are a little bit slower. They did it with their last album with classics like, "Maps", "Y Control" and "Modern Romance" and I think they may just have a bit more tricks up their sleeve. I like "Dudley", A new Yeah Yeah Yeahs (4 stars) If you're looking for the wild, thrashing electric feel of the Fever To Tell, this is not a sequel to that album. YYY has definitely grown up, and Karen O is so tame in this release that it is shocking. This album has its fine points, there is some interesting guitar work but it may take a little more time to fall in love with this album for what it is, without comparing it to its predecessor. BiographyFormed: 2000 in New York, NYGenre: Alternative Years Active: '00s, '10s Discovered in the wake of the Strokes' popularity and the subsequent garage rock revival, New York's art punk trio the Yeah Yeah Yeahs are comprised of singer Karen O, guitarist Nicolas Zinner, and drummer Brian Chase. O met Chase at Ohio's Oberlin College and met Zinner through friends after she transferred to NYU. Zinner and O formed the band in 2000; originally, they were a folky duo called Unitard, but they went electric...
