Is Is by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Is Is is an EP by Yeah Yeah Yeahs, released in 2007. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 1 countdown appearance in total. The biggest is “Down Boy”, on 1 list with a best position of #85.
Is Is, the third EP from New York's Yeah Yeah Yeahs, landed on Interscope on July 24, 2007, but its songs go back further: Karen O, Nick Zinner and Brian Chase wrote them in 2004, in the breaks between touring their first album, Fever to Tell. Nick Launay produced, and the tracks crackle with raw, jittery garage-punk energy, Zinner's guitar spitting sparks and Chase driving hard while Karen O yelps, purrs and howls.
"Down Boy" is the one that stuck, a slow-building thing that tips over into catharsis, and Rolling Stone ranked it at No. 61 among the 100 best songs of 2007.
