Yeah Yeah Yeahs

In the summer of 2009, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs were riding high on the success of their third studio album, "It's Blitz!" released earlier that year. This vibrant record was a departure into a dance-punk sound, blending Karen O's unique vocal style with synth-heavy beats, which brought a new energy to their live performances. The live recording of "Head Will Roll" in Vienna captures this electric atmosphere, showcasing their growth and experimentation during a major phase in their career. Interestingly, this performance took place just as the band was solidifying their status as one of the frontrunners of the indie rock scene. It was also around this time that they were opening for the likes of Blur, further cementing their place in the musical landscape. The Vienna show reflected their artistry and ability to engage audiences, blending theatrical flair with infectious energy.
