"Every copy I've seen says 1972 - only Wikipedia seems to have it as 1971. This is the best KA album by a distance in my view - with just the right amount experimentation and whimsy, spread across a range of hugely diverse but outstanding tracks. The title track is pure joy."  Reply

After releasing three really good albums, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs have finally released a mediocre album. “Mosquito" feels disjointed and, honestly, kind of boring, which is the exact opposite of what you’d expect from a Yeah Yeah Yeahs album. They’ve built they’re c..."  [+]  Reply

The production is, of course, stunning (if you didn't know, Jonathan Wilson has produced j..."  [+]  Reply
