TV on the Radio and Yeah Yeah Yeahs

(1/3) > >>

Gryff:
TV on the Radio and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs are working on new albums, both in Staygold Studios, pretty much one after the other.

I'm very excited by the prospect of new discs from these bands. TV on the Radio have released a track list but they haven't said anything much about what it's going to sound like, apart from "very large, full production, personal, anthemic, and worthy of makeout sessions with the sky", whatever that means.

Karen O of the YYYs has hinted at a quieter second album with less vocal distortion, even some folkier stuff (relative to what they've done before, I'm guessing). She said recently "There's aspects of my persona - of Karen O - that I'm definitely adverse to at this point." I'm thinking more songs like "Maps", which can only be a good thing IMO.

You can check out Pitchfork for the full info.

Anyone else looking forward to when these albums see the light of day?

Johnny C:
I liked "Y Control" and everything off of The Yeah Yeah Yeah's EP. Maybe if they did stuff like that.

TV on the Radio is consistently a-ok.

lastclearchance:
I am very excited for both actually.  I held the Young Liars EP in my hand today but didn't buy it.  I totally should have.  (I have the LP and the New Health Rock single).  And as for YYYs I really liked the first LP.  

Is TV on the Radio still on Touch and Go?

normz:
I adore the yeah yeah yeahs and i think karen o totally kicks ass ..... no matter what sound they have i will still be behind them Yay for rock chicks! *gets all excited at prospect of new music and a possible tour following albumn release*

Gryff:
lastclearchance, you should definitely get the Young Liars EP. It's just plain awesome. I am in awe of its awesomeness. The cover of "Mr Grieves" would be worth the price of admission alone, but the original songs are just frikkin amazing too. *jism face*

"Y Control" is probably my favourite YYYs song, although "Maps" would be its closest rival for my attention. I liked the second half of Fever To Tell better than the first, so obviously I'm pretty happy that they seem to be expanding on their quieter side.
