Clap Your Hands Say Yeah just announced that they will have a new album out January 30th. Included are a bunch of songs that they’ve been playing live, including “Some Loud Thunder” and “Satan Said Dance”, which is available on their myspace page. I saw them play those and wasn’t really crazy about them (I do like the crazy blippity-bloppy intro to “Satan Said Dance”), but I am excited that they’ve included “Underwater (You and Me)”, a song that was once featured on Alec’s now dead Flashy Python website. My first reaction is that it sounds awfully different from the first album. But it still sounds like CYHSY, so we’ll see.
I’ve made it pretty clear that, in this post-Pavement world we live in, I’m a sucker for anything that will fill the deep, dark void that remains since their breakup. Thankfully, The Broken Remotes are another source I can turn to for help. They are an L.A. band that Octavius from KXLU turned me on to recently. I’ve only heard stuff off of their 2004 album, Throw Me The Keys, but I’m eagerly anticipating their new one, Tonight’s Last Stand, that is due out December 16th.
