I have never actually listened to them, they seem popular, al download the album n give it a bash :D

My opinion is that "a fever to tell" was their best c.d,
Either way it's a fun band to see live, "mystery girl" and "art star" are some of my favs.

I've liked all the singles of theirs that I've heard, but I have never fully been compelled to get or download an album by them... they just don't seem to hold my attention beyond the odd radio song here and there....

Fever to Tell is pretty good. Not much of a YYYs fan, but that's a pretty solid album.

If I ever were to download something by them, then I guess Fever to Tell would be it... I have heard quite a few tracks off it and people seem to recommend it, so I am guessing it would make a good starting point...

wtf what?

Seems pretty apt to me. Cox and YYYs are hipster buddies and another hipster from their area made the film. What's strange?

They've replaced Beastie Boys as one of the headliners for ACL, I'm super excited to see them live. I saw them on tv playing the Bonnaroo festival and they put on a great show there, so I'm hoping for more of the same from them in October. Anyone here seen them live?

Oh yeah, and its a show. The other two are kinda there, but Karen O comes at you like the 4th of July.

It always seemed to me that at least performance wise Karen O was the face of the Yeah Yeahs.... she seems to have way more standout appeal than the other members of the band... either that or this is the image the media has forcefed me and I just swallowed it whole...
