Product Description

 
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah: Alec Ounsworth, Lee Sargent, Robbie Guertin, Tyler Sargent, Sean Greenhalgh. Audio Mixer: Adam Lasus. Recording information: Fireproof Recording, Brooklyn, NY; Machines With Magnets, Providence, RI. One of 2005's most lauded indie rock releases, the self-titled, self-released debut by Brooklyn's Clap Your Hands Say Yeah is an engaging and energetic album that pulls listeners into its charming world where things sound instantly familiar, yet strangely indescribable and unique. The neo-vaudeville intro ("Clap Your Hands!") carries a percussive Tom Waits vibe, but is distinguished by frontman Alec Ounsworth's David Byrne-like yelp. While the Byrne vocal comparisons are inescapable, Ounsworth, the band's main songwriter, isn't intent on recreating the Talking Heads' sound--it's just one aspect of many in the group's restless aesthetic. The record really kicks in with the one-two punch of the surging "Let the Cool Goddess Rust Away" and the chiming "Over and Over Again (Lost and Foun...

Clap Your Hands Say Yeah

Date of Review:  Oct 26, 2005
The Bottom Line: claps his hands and says yeah.
Review: Please disregard the text of this review. My views on music have changed in recent months.

Date of Review:  Oct 6, 2009
The Bottom Line: The band may have squandered their potential, but their self titled album holds up as one of the best, funnest, and most listenable indie rock albums of this decade.
Review: Depending on how the rest of the new bands from this decade shake out, I'm thinking about coining a phrase for indie bands who come out of nowhere with a brilliant album, receive a ton of critical praise and blog hype, live on good faith for a year...

Date of Review:  Dec 2, 2005
The Bottom Line: It's hard to come by in the stores, but pick up this CD online, and you won't regret it.
Review: So many things have contributed to the eruption of the indie rock genre in the past few years. The iPod helped. The staleness of the abused nu-metal and alt-rock genres helped. The surprising amount of exposure given to the genre by typical...
