Our Take

The latest offering from indie rock darlings Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, "Only Run," sees the band expanding their sonic palette in new and exciting ways. Gone are the lo-fi, quirky tunes of their earlier albums, replaced with a more polished and experimental sound.

Lead singer Alec Ounsworth's distinctive vocals are still front and centre, but now they are accompanied by lush, electronic production that gives the album a more modern and sophisticated feel. Tracks like "As Always" and "Your Advice" are perfect examples of this new direction, with their shimmering synths and pulsating beats.

That being said, the band hasn't completely abandoned their roots. Songs like "Blameless" and "Beyond Illusion" still have that signature CYHSY charm, with Ounsworth's lyrics weaving tales of heartbreak and disillusionment.

Overall, "Only Run" is a bold step forward for Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, showing that they are more than just a one-trick pony. While some fans may long for the days of their earlier, more straightforward sound, this new album proves that the band is capable of evolving and adapting to stay relevant in an ever-changing music landscape. So go ahead, give this album a spin and clap your hands for a band that continues to push boundaries and defy expectations.

About the artist

Clap Your Hands Say Yeah

Oh, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. The band that burst onto the indie scene in the mid-2000s with their self-titled debut album, causing a frenzy among critics and fans alike. Hailing from the City of Brotherly Love, Philadelphia, this quintet delivers a sound that is all at once catchy, eclectic, and undeniably cool. Fronted by the enigmatic Alec Ounsworth, who possesses a voice that can soar to dizzying heights one moment and whisper in your ear the next, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah create music that is as emotionally resonant as it is infectious. Their lyrics are introspective and thought-provoking, often exploring themes of love, loss, and the human condition in a way that feels both deeply personal and universally relatable. Musically, the band draws from a wide range of influences, blending elements of indie rock, post-punk, and art pop to create a sound that is uniquely their own. From the shimmering guitars and pulsating rhythms of "The Skin of My Yellow Country Teeth" to the haunting melodies and sparse instrumentation of "In This Home On Ice," Clap Your Hands Say Yeah demonstrate an impressive versatility and creativity that sets them apart from their peers. With a discography that spans over a decade and a reputation for delivering electrifying live performances, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah have firmly established themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the world of indie music. So go ahead, clap your hands, say yeah, and join the party. You won't regret it.
