Yeah Yeah Yeahs
This Brooklyn trio debuted during the 2001 celebration of All Things Rock and instantly made their case for good-old-fashioned attitude. Guitarist Nick Zinner has borrowed licks from the Cramps and 8-Eyed Spy, drummer Nick Chase calls on most of classic-rock timekeeping, and singer Karen O has been compared to so many people she can only be entirely original. (Pat Benatar, Poly Styrene, and Chrissie Hynde have all come up.) Screeching, throwing beer, and reviving torn clothing in one fell swoop, Karen O provided a downtown scene of skinny boys with a bona fide killer queen bee. Their guitar-voice-drums setup is unusually rich, able to produce an unlikely party tune such as "Bang" (containing the immortal line "as a fuck son, you suck") and the Ronettes-gone–Glenn Branca mashup "Our Time," which became an inadvertent 9/11 anthem (both from their debut EP). Fever to Tell (unexpectedly on Interscope) doesn't clean up their sound much, and has their loveliest tune, "Maps," an actual love song. "Pin" and "Rich" combine rhythm and noise and attitude in a way that somehow hasn't been done, though you'll swear it has. Over a full LP, their high-end sound suffers but their live show doesn't.
