New Yeah Yeah Yeahs Video - "Gold Lion"

Watch at AOL Music.


I'll take Jenny Lewis over Karen O, but this vid does have fire. Beavis would approve. And I have to say I'm impressed how Interscope has kept the leaks at bay. Anyone going to the YYYs' Hoboken show?

I am pretty sure they played this video this past friday on muchmusic's program 'the wedge'...so if anyone had recorded it, they'll probably rip it soon enough...or be a selfish prick...either way...

I love the YYYs, but this just reminded me of why I hate music videos so much

It's gonna be hard finding a leak of the album, because Interscope supposedly didn't send out very many promo copies for fear of it leaking, according to a VH1 article.

jenny lewis has a mustache. at least it appears so in the "portions for foxes" video. rilo kiley also sucks ass now. after "execution of all things" they seem to have lost their spine. "more adventurous" was exactly less adventurous. boring

I know he's dead and all, but Johnny Ramone wants his hair back, Karen.

You know, that's the second internet mention I've read this morning about haivng to wait in line with 14 year olds to see the Chicago show. Do 14 year olds really dig the YYYs? I'll be waiting in line either way...

And while I'm at it, why does waiting in line to see a band I like make me a "sucka"?

I'll just be desperately grasping for tickets tomorrow on ticketbastard, because there is no presale or anything for the Philadelphia show. If this thing sells out instantly, I am going to cry.

people are such judgmental pricks. one day you'll be old and slobbering on yourself and wish you had done something off the cuff or out of the mainstream. right before you die, that fear will hit you that you cared too much what others thought. FUCKIN' AMERICA, FUCKIN' FREEDOM. have a nice day.

things that comes to mind -

1- she is definitely starting to become a siouxise, esp round the tinder box- peepshow era.

2- i'm stillexcited to here the new record all the way through. from what i have heard i have a feeling this might be the one that actually pushes them over the top.

3- does anyone remember big pig and that song "breakaway?" from australia? thought so. anyhoo, they phoned up and they want their video back.

although it's not great, it's one of her better outfits.

Band To Watch: Blank Dogs

Blank Dogs are actually singular: It's the insanely prolific one-man Brooklyn-based band of Mr. Blank Dog. We don't know too much about the biography of the guy behind the bedroom new-wave pop/punk and he's usually covering his face with masks...
