I 've been seeing that "maps" video for a while now but recently I been noticing what a goddess Karen O is. I would go to the show just to see her......

I would go to that show just to punch you in the face. One good song doesn't make a good band.

Especially when the song is boring and stupid. :/

I'd never thought I'd say this, but...

Ronnie, I feel you.

Then, judging by my avatar, I'm biased.

I thought no wave came and went? or do we call this post rock now?

i think that was peaches, who've always sucked.

never liked deerhoof before. but this new album of theirs is my favorite.. which is to say it aint that bad. probably gonna play a couple songs on air.

and anyway, post rock is dead, thats why the offshoots of GYBE are reduced to making drunken, staggering lamentations on crude objects and desperate vocals.

i wasn't really talking about that (despite that being one of the best things any of those folks have done so far). i'm more worried about why no wave and post-rock are being brought up in a thread about the yeah yeah yeahs.

Because the two songs I've heard by them remind me of no wave in the chromatisism and focus on rhythm? Please don't shoot me?

No wave is like Teenage Jesus and the Jerks, who don't sound anything like the Yeah Yeah Yeahs

and what genre do the yeah yeah yeahs fall into?

I dono. I thought they were whatever the hives/strokes/white stripes/vines were in.

Fairly poor rock n' roll, if you ask me.

i actually like most of the stuff on the lp. i don't like the other crap. i'm not wild about them, but i approve for the most part.
