Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Mosquito

Review by Andrzej Lukowski

A blazingly enjoyable record, the most purely fun album the Yeah Yeah Yeahs have made since Fever to Tell.»

Following some busy years spent on solo forays, a psycho-opera, side projects and a tribute show or two, yeah yeah yeahs are back with a new studio album in tow. 'Mosquito' is their follow-up to 2009's 'it's blitz!'. A number of past collaborators joined the trio for LP4 recording sessions, including longtime band cohort / Karen O collaborator Dave Sitek and co-producer Nick Launay. meanwhile, LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy teamed up for one cut featuring guest vocals by Kool Keith. The album itself harkens back to the original sound of the art-rockers early 2000s work, without sacrificing the hook-crafting and pop knowledge that they have gained over the last decade-plus.
