Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Sacrilege


Holy hell. If you asked us to predict what would be in the new Yeah Yeah Yeahs single, a gospel choir would have been up there alongside Rolf Harris and his didgeridoo. But then our beloved Karen O and her crew have never trodden the same ground over their three exceptional albums, and certainly if the cover is anything to go by, Mosquito will be no different. 

Sacrilege pulses slowly with 'aar Kaz's trademark fuzzy vocals, leading up to this almighty crescendo of praise-Jesus, arms-in-the-air group fade-out. We think we might even be more excited about this album than the prospect of Beyonce's world tour. TESTIFY, SISTER.
