The following message was posted on the Yeah Yeah Yeah's website yesterday by Karen O. Seems pretty obvious they're about to enter the studio to begin work on their third studio album, and follow-up to last year's Show Your Bones. It'll be interesting to see what direction they go in this time. Given Karen's stated admiration for Love Is All, maybe she'll be inspired to pick up the sax. Maybe not. Here's the message reprinted in full.
"We are about to be reunited in NYC for the rest of March, working on a savory project that we hope all of you will dig into eventually, second helpings advised- you'll hear more from us very very soon in regards to this...Brian has been drumming up multiple performances in Brooklyn he has no performance anxiety, he go all night, he go boom. Nick is bouncing around the globe and when I say "globe" I mean the 5 boroughs! Last I heard from him he was eating something really crunchy on the other side of the phone. I'm getting over a cold that has taken my voice away, such a relief, I use that thing too much. Just wanted to tip y'all off on my favorite new records, "Nine Time That Same Song" by Love is All, I know it's said often but I can't remember the last time I've listened to a Record over again and then over again and then again again. Check them out if you're a curious person with "needs". The other is "Cryptograms" by Deerhunter, mine ears have heard the glory of Bradford COX, not too badlookin' these guys either. In fact they are good lookin, yeah, go look'em up!"
