Clap Your Hands Say Yeah

[Emmet]

only heard one of their tracks so far and wasn't that impressed.

Got this album about 6 or 8 months ago and absolutley fell in love... it got nonstop play for awhile and still finds itself crawling back to the CD player on a regular occasion.

When and where did this start getting hyped? I'm pretty out of tune with the pop culture machine...

[Eikman]

getting a 9.0 on pitchfork is pretty much a hype (also: music mags etc.)

Eikman-
Listen to it 5 or 6 times and then tell me "the skin of my yellow country teeth" doesn't stick in your skull like bubble gum.

I'd say they sound like early REM at some places with a bit of Talking heads thrown in for good measure. Don't forget Micheal Stipe can't sing worth a crap either...

crank!
