Yeah Yeah Yeahs June 3, 2009

Based in New York, the post-punk/garage rock band Yeah Yeah Yeahs consists of Karen O, Brian Chase and Nicolas Zinner. The trio released their self-titled debut EP in 2001--featuring angry yet sexy vocals and equally fierce guitar work and drumming. As fans awaited the band's first full-length album, Yeah Yeah Yeahs released a second super-charged EP, 'Machine,' in 2002. After much anticipation, 'Fever to Tell,' the band's debut full-length, appeared in 2003 and featured a range of songs, from ballads to high-energy punk tracks. Yeah Yeah Yeahs have kept a busy touring schedule, supporting bands such as the Strokes and the White Stripes, making appearances at festivals such as South by Southwest, and headlining their own tours in the U.S. and the U.K.
