So yeah, we already knew Yeah Yeah Yeahs' first single from forthcoming third album It's Blitz! wasn't going to be a Smashing Pumpkins cover. Instead of cybernetic walls of guitars, the New York trio's "Zero" puts Karen O's ever-expressive voice-- vulnerable murmurs, tough-girl sneers, breathy whimpers, sultry come-ons, Prince-ly high notes, etc.-- over vintage synths and a steady modern-rock beat. "Get your leather on," O snarls. And then she asks your name. It's so hard to be a saint in the city. (via Stereogum)[from It's Blitz!; due 04/14/09 on Interscope]
