It's Blitz

The latest Yeah Yeah Yeahs album, It's Blitz!, is, in my opinion, their best album to date.  I think I love it so much because Karen O suggested Nick Zinner lay off the sweet guitar riffs and do some synth and keyboard work, a suggestion that has made this album utterly dance-inspiring from start to finish.  Seriously, I have barely listened to any other music since It's Blitz! came out a few weeks ago.  

While the above spot-on performance from last week's SNL really captures the more up-tempo lovability of the album, I also find myself skipping forward to Hysteric and listening to it several times in a row.  Karen sounds ethereal on this track and I find it romantic in a way similar to Maps but just way, way better (unless you consider some Maps remixes, a few of which are kind of perfect).  Hope you enjoy it, too.
