This is the lead singer of the band, who plays really cool vintage indie rock with a lot of pop sensibilities. Even a lil bit of chillwave lofi mixed into her sound. Anyways, the lead singer Miley Cyrus had her vagina exposed...
The third Yeah Yeah Yeahs record is due out early 2009, according to a post on the band’s MySpace late last night. Actual details remain sketchy, but an attached in-studio pic shows Karen O in Mickey Mouse ears and skeleton suit, with Nick Zinner in some kind of Nicky Wire/Richard O’Brien from The Crystal Maze animal print top, so fun is evidently being had. The full statement...

Karen O MP3s

Here’s the full-length version of Animal Collective’s bizarre dubbed-out remix of “Zero” that we mentioned briefly the other day, complete with pitch-shifted Karen O vocals: [via]***************related:***************
What, no guitars!?  On April 13 in the UK and April 14 in the US, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs will release their third album, It’s Blitz!. With strictly no guitars, Nick Zinner’s trademark clunky and erratic axe is replaced by slushy synths and what sounds like syncopated drum machine beats. Where has the sound of the classically lauded Goliath of all power trios gone? Brian Chase...
Who: Yeah Yeah Yeahs Title: It’s Blitz Release Date: April 13th Label: Interscope Thoughts: Walking the fine line of changing your sound is a often a daring and dangerous task for a band, but something that the best bands to incredibly well. They learn to take chances, to expand their sound, and to try new things in order to adapt to changing times or just to refresh a stagnant sound. For...
Wow! Only two months into 2009 and we have already had over a dozen of highly anticipated albums. Yeah Yeah Yeahs can now be added to that list. And while you’re at it, add them to the list of bad ass covers. The Strokes might have heralded in the new age of garage rock in the early 2000s, but no one has completely owned the genre like YYY. They’re commitment to edgy, but approachable...

Karen O Reviews

The last Lollapalooza of the this decade is in the books and despite, what on paper, looked like a less than impressive lineup, it turned out another weekend of exciting and memorable moments just as in years past. Every year going at Lolla, one is expected to battle oppressive heat, but on Friday this year, Mother Nature decided to throw in a little something extra - a rain storm that only...
EDITORS NOTE: About once a month the writers of the RSL get together and look through new projects, drink the finest of wines and shoot our mouths off about music and politics. (And have a pretty damn decent time, I must say!) We recently hosted a debate about the new album from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. What follows is the review of our own Nick Parker…. He defends the dramatic shift in sound...
Band name: Tiny Masters of Today Label: Mute Teaser: So, David Carritt gives us this fine review of the Tiny Masters of Today’s debut album. It’s safe to say he’s not a fan. Here at artrocker, there’s a fair few us who are keen on these young uns. But not David. Have you heard them? Seen them at the club? What do you reckon? Has David got a point? Add...
The Mars Volta opened the BBC Radio One/NME stage in the early evening, bouncing onstage to acrobatics on the drums. I have a foggy recollection of seeing them years ago supporting some Scottish band, and not being impressed, so pleasantly surprised to see my expectations weren’t met in this case. They’re doing the rounds this summer too, stopping at the Wickerman Festival in the...
Band name: Les Savy Fav, XX teens, Young Knives and more Label: various indie schmindies Teaser: Emily Kendrick takes us for a spin through this week’s singles - and they’re a right fruity bunch too, including Yeah Yeah Yeah collaborations, Duran Duran cover versions, and XX Teens’ guide to surviving terrorism… Pull quote 2: It branches out into a...
