Mosquito by Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Yeah Yeah Yeahs deliver their fourth studio album with minimal instruments and a stadium’s worth of sound.

Lead track ‘Sacrilege’ follows a seemingly familiar path of guitars, drums and Karen O crooning and hollering, before breaking out electric licks and a soulful gospel choir. Further along, ‘Always’ is ethereal, spiritual and beautiful.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs are clearly a band willing to do anything to create perfect pop-rock, regardless of what anyone else thinks.
