I have to say, that is a really lame album title, and I listen to a lot of bands with really lame album titles, so I know what I'm talking about. Fever To Tell, Show Your Bones. It's Blitz just doesn't have the same ring to it.

^You beat me to it. Although I was going to put it into a complete sentence.
I'll be buying their new album day-out. Silversun Pickups and YYY's the same day? I'm stoked! However they might get overshadowed by Depeche Mode as far as my personal listening goes the next week.

I really doubt it's a Smashing Pumpkins cover. I just can't see The Yeah Yeah Yeahs making that happen. Although many stranger instances have happened recently with covers, so who knows.

Yes, a lot of strange covers recently. I'd rather it not though. I'd like to hear something original.

This definitely isn't a SP remake. It's catchy and could go top 30 on this chart.

I was going to ask you if you already had a copy of the album. I can't wait to get it. I am a huge fan. Plus, they will be at Chella!!

Plus, they will be at Chella!! That would be the Coachella festival, for all of us unhip midwestern (or otherwise geographically impaired) music fans. Or those of us without the disposable income to make the trip out there. And before anyone brings up Lollapalooza or Bonnaroo, those aren't exactly in my backyard, either, and multi-day festivals aren't worth the hassle or expense unless they are.

This song is so badass. If it's trendy it's endearingly so. The phrase "your zero" is the closest thing you get to the SP song. However I think that in spite the fact that Smashing Pumpkins is what I believe to be my fourth favorite artist of all time, this song will surpass their title for me.

this song cooks and I believe it could really go to CHR\Pop.

I wish Coachella didn't take place in the Palm Spring area where its so freaking hot. Why they picked the California desert of all places in the state is beyond me. I guess because it never rains there.

This song is wonderful and I hope it does extremely well.
That said, Heads Will Roll fucking kicks its ass and MUST be the second single.

Did I really deserve that? Coachella is something that I have always said I wanted to do but until this year, have never been able to. Forgive me for being a little excited, since it is my first time and all and some of my favorite bands ever are playing there. Also, I happen to have a good job but I would hardly call my income disposable. And I thought the pop forums and lounge that I usually hang out in on Pulse had their share of nastiness. Good to know it's all around!

Oh...by the way, this song is one of my favorite YYY songs, from Karen's sounds to the musical backdrop. From what I heard of the album while skimming on their MYSPACE, it's going to be their best!

That direct response to my post sounded nothing if not completely snarky, not to mention ungainly self-pitying but that could just be my perception and I will leave it alone.

Nick always sounds snarky. It is part of his charm. And what's so bad about self-pity? Self-pity is awesome. It's one of the things that makes our country great. Anyway, if you think that was nasty, you've really never been harassed in your life, have you?

Good to know it's all around! You say this year will be your first time going? Forgive me, then, for misinterpreting your shorthand as having come from the mouth of a multi-year veteran, who is now "like this" *holds up two crossed fingers* with the festival and is therefore comfortable enough with it to call it his own pet-name.
