"The Yeah Yeah Yeahs have really tightened and polished up their sound. I enjoyed the sloppy antics of Fever to Tell, but this is really a step up!"
My name is Ben, and I'm addicted to this album.

"I think this is a fantastic record.
A while back I was asked by a fellow Amazon reviewer why I write reviews. He didn't like one of mine on My Bloody Valentine where I pointed out the mixing and mastering was lacking in spots. Better mixing might bring out more of the good stuff, and of course better mastering when there's hardly any bass always helps on a rock record. He tried some bashing. I stood my ground. And then I found out Kevin Shields was remixing his album and that it would be remastered. I was vindicated before by my own ears, but this wasn't unwelcome news, certainly. Hah.
It's Blitz needs none of that, but it'd be nice if they released it in a higher res format. 16/44.1 really bites. Even 16/48 would help. I would gladly dish out for multiple versions of Yeah Yeah Yeahs disks or downloads in progressively higher quality. You know, the Bjork model of merchandising. There's a lot of money in that. Vinyl doesn't cut it (cut it, heh heh), as I only buy dance music on that format. I don't mean remix it from the multitrack to surround, just a DVD-Video disk with the original studio PCM stereo format on it would be nice. If there's space left over, add some footage. Hell I'd buy that. Anyway, just a thought.
Why do I write reviews?

"This album is more "pop/dance" and less "alternative" than their previous albums, but it's still pretty good. I especially liked Zero, Heads Will Roll, and Little Shadow."
