Clap Your Hands Say Yeah Some Loud Thunder on Import Vinyl! Song titles like 'Upon Encountering the Crippled Elephant' and 'Satan Said Dance' might spell novelty act for some, but Clap Your Hands Say Yeah is simply a band with too many ideas. That's not a bad thing. Like the Brooklyn five-piece's self-titled debut, which became an enormous word of mouth hit with MP3 bloggers, this follow-up flies right from the start with its exuberant, oddly tuneful title track. It sets the tone for an album that is devotedly all over the place. Frontman Alec Ounsworth still has a knack for sounding a bit like vintage David Byrne, with the goofy lyrical non-sequiturs to match. On elastic, eclectic tracks like 'Mama, Won't You Keep Them Castles in The Air and Burning' and 'Emily Jean Shock' his yelp works wonders, while just when you least expect it he brings a startling sense of gravity to the elegant 'Goodbye to Mother and the Cove.' Clap Your Hands Say Yeah decided not to wait the perfunctory two years in between records to release their sophomore effort Some Loud Thunder, but to to release it as soon as it was ready. Eager to prove there's more to the band than just a business story, Some Loud Thunder demonstrates just how far this band has come since the release of their debut. This is not CYHSY Part II - this is a departure record, a record that will stand the test of time and critics alike. Clap Your Hands Say Yeah Some Loud Thunder Track Listing 1. Some Loud Thunder |
