Karen O makes an entrance worthy of Warhol or Lee Van Cleef on her Yeah Yeah Yeahs debut EP, introducing herself on "Bang" with an unmistakably sexual growl, a rock-&-roll hunger somewhere between Mick Jagger and Jon Spencer. It's the sort of game-changing bravado that cannot be ignored. And when she primally screams about sex and desperation and madness over sonic blasts of noise and melody that conjure up second wave punk and new wave and early hardcore, often on the same song, it's exciting, almost stunning; it's clearly one of the more important EPs of its era.

Recorded at The Funhouse, New York, New York.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs: Karen O (vocals); Nick Zinner (guitar); Brian Chase (drums).

Personnel: Karen O (vocals); Nick Zinner (guitar); Brian Chase (drums).

Recording information: Funhouse, New York, NY.Rolling Stone (8/8/02, p.78) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...A punk-rock dream come true...you should get a jolt out of every song....It's a truly inspirational sound, as well as a headache-inducing racket..."
Spin (1/03, p.72) - Ranked #28 on Spin's list of 2002's "Albums of the Year" - "...Drums whip-crack, surf-punk guitars claw your back like chipped nails, and vocalist/train wreck Karen O. howls like a cat in heat on a hot Brooklyn roof."
CMJ (7/8/02, p.12) - "...The YYY's are New York City's answer to self-indulgence. This EP will spoil and tease you hard."

5 stars YEAH YEAH YEAH!
First off this is not an album it's an extended play(E.P.). But the five songs are worth it a full length. And if you are a YYYs fan then you know that they are probably not making any more albums. So buy it while it's still available. This is much better than their first E.P. The songs are more experimental almost like their first full length album. Buy it.

4 stars rawly melodical
...had heard from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs but hed never really listened to their songs. I knew there was somethig about them!!! This 5 track album is a nice invitation to the YYY world. Karen O's voice has something unique...it's raw, sensual and childish at the same time and fits perfectly in a band with only drums and one guitar. Now that I know more from the YYY I have to admit that their greatest song is on this album..."Miles Away"

4 stars sweet.
good look into the yyy's roots... the recording job is not the best... but is good in its own right. altough karen o's vocals were not what they are now, she's still sexy on this release. you can find a newer version of countdown on the maps single... its better too!

this is an excellent short intro to the yeah yeah yeah's world. art star is probably one of the most ingenious song ever written... how karen o can get real fury and bop along loveliness from her voice in a 2 minute track is beyond me!
