YEAH YEAH YEAHS - TO PLAY R5 SHOW IN APRIL - WOAH !

The Yeah Yeah Yeahs

After a couple of insanely hyped singles which altogether clocked in at about 18 minutes total, New York's garage-punk trio The Yeah Yeah Yeahs have mustered enough quality material to warrant all of the hype (cover of magazines, mtv movie awards etc). A car-crash of thuggish rockabilly licks and punky-disco grooves guided by vocalist Karen O's snarling sexuality and blackened humor are present and sound an awful lot like a female fronted Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, or perhaps more appropriately Boss Hog when they were good. Lots of sneering rock 'n' roll with a handful of slower, darker, and sentimental ballads - transforming raucous punked-up energy into emotive songsmithery. New album out in late March. This show is sure to sell out. Get your tickets now!
