Some Loud Thunder by Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
Some Loud Thunder is an album by Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, released in 2007. 2 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 2 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Underwater (You and Me)”, on 1 list with a best position of #47.
Some Loud Thunder, the second album from Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, arrived on Wichita on January 29, 2007, in the UK and a day later in the US, though fans who'd pre-ordered could download it legally from Insound from January 16. After a debut that made them the poster children of the MP3-blog boom, Alec Ounsworth and company called in Dave Fridmann, the Mercury Rev and Flaming Lips producer, and he did not play it safe.
Fridmann blows the sound out in places, as if daring anyone expecting a polite sequel to turn it off, and Ounsworth's yelping, wobbly voice rides over stranger, roomier arrangements: "Satan Said Dance" is a twitchy, pulsing disco-punk fever dream, and "Underwater (You and Me)" a woozier, lovelorn sway. It debuted at 47 on the Billboard 200 on 19,000 copies, and Rolling Stone named "Satan Said Dance" the 95th best song of 2007.
