Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
so, can someone explain this to me? an animal collective rip-off with a shite singer? a couple of brooklynites stuck on lsd? the part of the polyphonic spree that didn't end up in the madhouse?

worst record i have listened to in months.

I can't stand the voice.

The guitars are fine but - ewwww. That voice makes me want to bang my head on the desk to make it stop.

Re: Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
these days it's cool to have a "weird" singer. you can tell everyone it's "expressionistic" and "arty" and get a high rating on peeforkmedia

Re: Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
Honestly how are they any different than any other band from the wash of indie music out there on the recommend board of urban outfitter stores?

Get your superman logo blue tee, your brown ben sherman pants and pick your favorite.

The mass media always gets a hard on for indie bands with good production values.

I like the CD. However the guys voice does take some getting used to. However on the songs that they blow. They blow hard. I.E. The last minute and a half of the last song on the cd.

Re: Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
They're so 2005.

They're ok. Probably the most hyped up band I every got a cd from that was mailed from the lead singer's house. I like the music a lot, don't really pay attention to the vocals (yeah it can be hard not to!)

random Talking Heads mention

Yeah - I think that is what the guy is maybe trying to achieve, but he is trying too hard and ends up wailing cacophonously instead imo.
