AMR: Yeah Yeah Yeahs – It’s Blitz!

Thursday, June 4th, 2009

yyyitsblitzI’ve heard people giving it all sorts of praise so I decided to get in on the hype and get my hands on the new Yeah Yeah Yeah’s album It’s Blitz! I sometimes like to read album reviews only after I’ve heard the album in full (the reverse tactic makes me either really love or really dislike an album). I kinda waited after the YYY’s released their first two singles (Zero & Heads Will roll) but hot damn they should have called the album “It’s Bliss!” It’s honestly the first YYY’s record I’ve actually sat through without feeling a little antsy at one point or another. It makes you want to dance and break out in a robot whilst ripping your heart out cause suddenly you feel this sudden lovely lonliness.  The more “electronic” sounding YYY’s works and they don’t lose the ID that brought forth Karen O and co. to the limelight.

BRB going to dance with tears in my eyes to Little Shadow.
