Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Garage-rock? The Yeah Yeah Yeahs’ second album demonstrates that if this New York art-school trio were ever anything to do with the stripped-down, lo-fidelity rock ethic, it was strictly by coincidence. Rather, Show Your Bones marks this band out as true 21st Century new-wavers, their sound filled out with gleaming layers of guitar and a dynamic that bucks and coils with devious ambition under vocalist Karen O’s gasped, orgasmic yowl.

True, like Fever To Tell, Shake Your Bones opens with a snarl and an surfeit of fiery rock-out gumption--see single "The Golden Mile" and "Phenomena", Karen chanting "Something like a phenomenon/You’re something like a phenomenon" over crunchy, distorted stomp. But gradually, the album softens to yield emotional secrets. "Cheating Hearts" commences with a triumphant Nick Zinner fanfare apparently cribbed straight from the Sex Pistols’ "Pretty Vacant", but blossoms out into a passionate love song that flits between swooning poignancy and elatory triumph, while the hushed "Warrior" belies Karen and Nick’s genesis as a singer-songwriter duo--at least until it rears into life like a rattlesnake, Karen letting loose gleeful kung-fu chops atop slices of choppy guitar. A second album that, far from feeling difficult, comes across as almost effortless in its excellence. --Louis Pattison



CD Description

Second full length album from New York garage-rock trio theYeah Yeah Yeahs. This is the follow-up to 2003's criticallyacclaimed 'Fever To Tell'. Produced by Squeak E Clean, the album sees the band develop their alternative rock sound, emphasising this time on heavier drums while lead-singer, Karen O, supplies her trademark intense vocals. The single 'GoldLion' is included.

4.0 out of 5 stars likely sophmore effort, 13 Mar 2006
By Evan C. Young - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I love love love this album, but if you are looking for a follow up to Fever to Tell, then look elsewhere. This album is produced magnificantly (crystal clear) which is quite differnt then their previous album. Drums are insanely strong and, as always, Karen O kicks it with intense vocals. Overall, a great album, jsut not as wild and off the wall as Fever to Tell. I don't even think I hear Karen O scream once!

5.0 out of 5 stars at last - something to get excited about, 24 Sep 2006
By D. Thompson "tommo" (leeds) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
altohugh im only 25 i seem to have got myself into time warp where i only like stuff from the lat 80's or early 90's - i find my self raving onto all my kooks, arctic, walkmen, editors, futureheads loving mates about bands fronted by old men called sugar, husker du, dinosaur jr, pixies, minutemen, screeming trees etc etc - it seems i have love for simple guitar orientated alt rock music, - loud thrashing chords, catchy tunes and clever emotional lyrics....

so with the current music climate i am findinf my self on a little bit of driftwood bobbing about with nothing to latch onto.

then all of a sudden im watching mtv 2 and "Turn into" comes on -enien minuten bitte - i thought - this sounds like some good old early 90's alt rock.... but no alast its the Yeah Yeah Yeahs! a band i had heard of but just presumed they were some radio 1 hyped up crap that every one likes coz its "cool"...

well what a foolish boy i have been - at last something to get excited about - this is a fantastic bit of rock -

its been a long long time since i heard some music that sent a shiver down my spine or got me headbanging in the car. i saw them live at the leeds fest and its so refreshingto see a band that revolve their music around the love for the sound of a crashing guitar.

rock music is only just alive again with the Yeah Yeah yeahs holding the elaboratly decorated flag (with the metric supproting it)

5.0 out of 5 stars Crackin', 4 Dec 2006
An amazing album, the finest released this year. Generally more polished than "Fever to tell", it's gorgeous rock, far superior to most of the dross on the radio these days. Beautiful, catchy, energetic, loud rock. Play loud.
