It's Blitz!

With the Yeah Yeah Yeahs album seemingly dominating Poptimist listening (if the last FM stats are anything to go by) shouldn't we have a chat about it?

I think both! cuz I def see where you're coming from but at the same time I don't think it's a conscious or deliberate thing - it hits a similar spot and I react to it in much the same way, but at the same time if Karen O said she'd never heard a PSB song I'd believe her.

Yes, totally. It doesn't sound like a concious influence, and it's entirely possible that the YYYs know nothing of the PSBs but there's something that pushes similar buttons for me as well, and is interesting to hear people with I think, some very similar influences doing comparable-but-different things with them.
