LoFi-Kleinode, "Crush Songs" just now, recorded the Yeah-Yeah-Yeahs-Chanteuse 2006 and 2007 in their own bedroom. Far away from the opulent sound of her main band, Karen O suffered through 14 pieces, some of which lasted only one or two minutes, but often had more expressiveness than many an epic show.

But when there is a punk grumbling like in "Body", the O shows itself once more rebellious and edgy.
