Yeah Yeah Yeahs to release Mosquito on April 16th, 2013
It’s been a while since the Yeah Yeah Yeahs released new music; their last album, It’s Blitz debuted in March of 2009. Because “Heads Will Roll” and “Zero” were some of the best tracks out that year, we are super excited to learn about the band’s new project, which is a bit overdue in our humble opinion. Musical zinger Karen O, along with the mega talented, Nick Zinner and Brian Chase, compose the super trendy band; their next big release, Mosquito, hits stores on April 16th, 2013. The album marks a new direction for the band. Presenting it as their own version of soul music, it is going to feature “something for everyone”. It is their 4th studio album.Never to shy away from a bit of controversy, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs released the music video for their album’s first single, “Sacrilege”. In it, gorgeous model Lily Cole makes a rather scandalous appearance. She is seen making out with a variety of suitors, who later prosecute her, and burn her at the stake. The social commentary about people’s moral and social values is definitely a staple of this video.http://youtu.be/jmRI3Ew4BvAWhat do you think, has the shock factor and social commentary outweighed the melodic intrigue of the band?Image Source: Wiki Commons - top: Max Knies, bottom: Stig NygaardWritten by: Staff Writer Liz Belilovskaya
