NME's 10 best albums of the noughties
5. ‘Fever To Tell’ – Yeah Yeah Yeahs (2003)
Dirty garage punk returned to the charts after ‘Fever to Tell’ went gold. The New York indie trio offer up a cocktail of urgent noise followed, jarringly, by slow ballads given leading lady Karen O plenty to sink her teeth into, ranging from breathlessly hyperactive to reflectively subdued and back again.
Having just three band members helps make Yeah Yeah Yeahs into a frantically economical group and a force to be reckoned with.
