The Section Quartet Cover Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Cross-genre'd indie covers are nothing new (see Christopher O'Riley, Brad Mehldau -- and remember the jazzy Pavement of Gold Sounds?), but we'll always love 'em. Get Jon Brion involved, and we're sold on the spot. The Section Quartet present Fuzzbox, a two-violin/viola/cello take on acts like Queens Of The Stone Age, Muse, Radiohead, Bowie, the Strokes, and the Postal Service -- with an eye toward keeping it rock, despite the classical orchestration. Linda Perry escaped Courtney Love's incessant shoutouts long enough to produce the LP, though its Jon Brion who helms this take on YYYs "Phenomena."
The Section Quartet - "Phenomena" (MP3)
TSQ's take on "Juicebox" and "Paranoid Android" are up on MySpace. Fuzzbox is out 8/21 on Decca, and the Quartet's doing a CD-release show at Mercury Lounge that night. Go and tell your mom you went to see a classical-string show.

I heart the Section quartet. They make Panic! At The Disco...what's the word? Ah, yes...listenable.

I heard this in Borders and automatically loved it. Thank you so much for posting it here. It's my new favorite song next to the actual Phenomena.
