Is “Date With The Night” by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs the greatest song ever?
Jarring, scattergun guitar riffs and kicking drums and singer Karen O’s wounded wail. Bratty power chords and after-dark thrills written by New York’s breakout post-punk three-piece with vocalist and keyboardist Karen, guitarist and keyboardist Nick Zinner, and drummer Brian Chase. Recorded at Headgear Studio in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, in 2003. Produced by David Andrew Sitek and mixed by Alan Moulder. “Date With The Night” It brought back rock with a vengeance. Shrieking, screaming, blistering. Got a date with the night. Burnin’ down my finger. Gonna catch the kids dry. Gonna walk on water. If you liked this post from New Old Age, why not share it? |
