4.0 out of 5 stars Clapyourhands it's catchy yeah!, 13 Dec 2005
By S. COLE "Si" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Hyperbole dominates rock music, thanks to journalism, we are encouraged to listen to certain bands, and the whole experience can get somewhat draining. Thankfully, some critics get it right. The recent success of The Arcade Fire has opened a gateway for anything alternative and folkish. Clap Your Hands Say Yeah! have been recently pedalled, deserving it more than a slew of semi-talented attention grabbers.

'Heavy Metal' is a go-getter of an eighth track! Warbly, demented and twee, it progresses steadily like the soundtrack to a Commodore game. When absurd tunes become infectious, there's a jackpot waiting at the end of the rainbow. Let these lovelies pick up a few! Ahhh...

4.0 out of 5 stars Worth the hype, 5 Oct 2005
By A Customer
I'm surprised I'm the first person to review this album on Amazon considering the incredible hype it's received. Initially championed by Pitchfork, they have received the "next best thing" tag from almost everywhere. All this despite only recently signing a record deal (the band managed to sell in excess of 10,000 copies themselves through word of mouth) So is the hype legitimate? Are they the new Arcade Fire? Will they save rock and roll? Is the lead singers (Alec Ounsworth) voice crap? Well the latter question depends on personal taste I suppose. From the first track, a weird "roll up roll up" circus type announcement, you can tell that Alecs voice is definitely not conventional. There are the obvious shades of David Byrne throughout but by the time "The Skin of My Yellow Country Teeth" ends (and slides beautifully into "Is this Love?") you're singing into your hairbrush trying to replicate that tuneless wail. ."Details of the War" ,"In this Home of Ice" and "Upon This Tidal Wave of Young Blood" are the highlight tracks, the latter ending with a gorgeous 2 minute repetition of the words "child starts" It's definitely an album that gets better as it goes on, please don't give up after the first track ! And also an album that becomes even better when you spend time reading the lyrics on the inlay card. Is it worth the hype? I think so but buy it quick before the backlash.....

5.0 out of 5 stars Clap Your Hands Say Yeah!!, 26 Oct 2005
By A Customer
The hype is true for once! The David Byrne influence is there but these guys are quite unique. Every tune is a catchy, tight and well layered with quality,interesting lyrics to match. These guys are touring the UK in November with tickets starting from a fiver, you need to see them!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Over and Over Again
I love this album, it has shades of Talking heads mixed with early Television in a 2005 way. Track 1 is kinda an intro, im sure this would not be part of the live set but tracks 2... Read more
