i really like the yeah yeah yeahs and i think that this album is the perfect step for them, love it... great record

I second that. Show your bones is a pile of donkey shit.

I didn't like it the first time I listened to it. It's growing on me, though. "Gold Lion" sounds better if you turn it up really loud...

It is crazy to read the comments people post about their new album. I agree that is does not have the energy or balls of their earlier work, but I think it was a good step for them. Yeah, I thought "gold lion" was sarah and tegan at first, but I still like Nick's guitar playing on the album. They basicly have the same dynamic of the White Stripes w/ just a drummer and guitar. I think taking that into account they get a really good sound. Plus I think especially on a sonic youth board, people would appreciate the nick zimmer's detuned guitar and sy influenced playing, but clearly the comments show otherwise b/c they are so fucking huge now.

Wow, I just convinced myself not to liked them because they are so mainstream now. It is against my programming to like any band that gets some sort of commercial success.

I agree that their earlier work is better, in fact, it's excellent! Now, they sound just very tierd and sad and a bit boring. Why did they decided to do mostly acustic album, we'll never know, but, for-the-love-of-god, what's Karen going to do onstage while singing this energyless song? I mean, you could perform eye surgery while listening Show your bones...!

I am touching myself RIGHT NOW.

best cd of 2006 so far
