YYYs - It's Blitz! (2009)

Label: Interscope

Yeah Yeah Yeahs, it’s been a while; good to hear from you. As the band has said, It’s Blitz! sounds different than past YYYs music, but it also is unmistakably them. This is due to Karen O’s distinctive Karen-O-ness—she’s never been a great technical singer but has developed an undeniably unique vocal style, and strange as it might seem to fans who watched YYYs come up through the clubs as a scrappy garage-punk band, she seems more at home within the electronic/rock hybridisms of It’s Blitz. A big reason for that is the fact that her bandmates, Nick Zinner and Brian Chase, are two of the better musicians to come out of NYC’s rock scene this decade, no matter the context. The change in sound is neither superficial nor too dramatic or complicated; the energy and moods, from high wattage to stray voltage, remain familiar and welcome. Plenty of could-be hits across It’s Blitz!’s ten tracks, and this album’s “Maps” will be either “Skeletons” or “Runaway”—maybe both.
