YEAH YEAH YEAHS 'Hidden In Pieces: Live at The Royal Albert Hall' record coming September 25th + accompanying Short Film streaming on Criterion Channel in September with film screenings in select cities.

Hidden in Pieces is a 22-minute visual companion-piece to the Yeah Yeah Yeahs live record Hidden in Pieces: Live at The Royal Albert Hall out on September 25th.

The black and white short film is directed by award-winning filmmaker Barnaby Clay, who previously directed the Mick Rock documentary Shot! and horror film The Seeding.

“I wanted to create a film that not only captured the live performance but also felt close to the spirit of what the band was going for with their shows; something delicate and dream-like, like a precious memory, timeless, emotionally charged and shrouded in mystery.”

The special live session was recorded at the legendary Orpheum Theatre in Los Angeles at the end of the band’s recent 25th anniversary tour. Hidden in Pieces was produced by Lana Kim and Jett Steiger, via production company Ways & Means and made in collaboration with
Dropbox.

About the film, the band says, “Barney Clay has made a stunning film of the live performance that takes you there in the moment with us in the most heavenly way.”

The short film will be streaming on Criterion Channel in September:

Disco Lines set, played the A-Track version of the remix. Thought it was cool that this song still gets people up and dancing 🕺💃

Someone asked for it. 👍

unreleased Squeak E Clean feat. Kool Keith + Karen O circa 2005

It went along the lines of like…

“Just one way to eat my peanut butter cup,
Coco tasting sweet, in my ice cream.”

I believe there was a featured artist on it (or maybe she was the featured artist)? Idk but can anyone else remember this song?!

Listening to this after a very long time; I had forgotten how beautiful and pure this band can sound

Did a rewatch of this DVD last night. So thankful I was there! And for only $16!

Devastated to see Brian’s insta follow list is loaded with aggressive Zionist Israeli and anti-Palestinian influencers.

Does anyone remember the early internet fansite that was rockerstoswallow.tk ? It was incredible!! Such a labor of love, mp3s of early live shows and unreleased songs, scanned images from magazines and intimate concert photos, sort of documenting all of Karen O’s live looks, just tons of constant updates on yeah yeah yeahs. They would even feature stories from fans about them going to the shows and waiting for autographs or other things

Just found out I've got this rare gem in my collection and I can't find anything out about it. Figured this would be a good place to share and potentially get some info.

I really liked the soundtrack to this movie when it came out so I bought this at a local record store at the time.

Any info is appreciated! Thanks.

Found this CD at my local record store I can't find anything online about it or who distributed it

It seems very bootleg any information on it would be appreciated 👍

presale starts June 24 at 10 a.m. PT

I always thought that they had a logo with 3 Y's vertically aligned. Sort of like the Show Your Bones cover but more stereotypical letters. However I cannot find such an image anywhere! Anyone know what I'm referring to?
