Is Is

Five tracks of jagged, high-voltage art-punk. A raw return to the band's gritty New York roots, defined by overdriven guitars and feral vocal performances.

It's the Yeah Yeah Yeahs at their most feral and guitar-heavy, like a lost session from 2003.

A high-tension explosion of urban grit and primal art-punk energy.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The sudden, violent explosion of guitar noise that opens Rockers to Swallow.
Karen O's transition from a seductive whisper to a feral howl on Down Boy.
The relentless, mechanical drum thud that anchors the hypnotic title track Isis.
