Yeah Yeah Yeahs record with James Murphy, HMV in trouble, Broken Social Scene return, new Nick Cave song... Music News Daily
Tuesday, 15 January

Yeah Yeah Yeahs have announced they will release their fourth album on 15 April. Called Mosquito, the album was produced by Nick Launay, Dave Sitek and LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy (who did one track). "We would love for this music to make our fans feeeeel something, for it to stir some shit up inside of them, whatever that may be," explained singer Karen O. "So much feeling went into this record, it was the rope ladder thrown down into the ditch for us to climb up and dust ourselves off. I hope others can climb up it too; we're excited to share the good vibes. I think this record has more moodier and tripped-out songs than you've ever heard from us. You might catch some roots reggae and minimalist psychedelia influences in there." Watch a teaser for the album below.
