In just a few months this year is coming to a close. So many amazing albums have come out including Arctic Monkey's AM, Lana Del Rey's Unreleased, and MGMT's self titled album. Although my favorite album of the year, so far, would have to be Mosquito by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. With fame, most artists' fourth record end up being bubble gum and shallow but the Yeah Yeah Yeahs have always done a fantastic job of keeping their music fresh yet not losing their iconic indie rock/garage punk sound. Because they may be an acquired taste to some, if you are not a fan yet I would encourage you to listen to their Fever to Tell album and then jump into Mosquito, starting with Always and Sacrilege. In no time you'll be jamming to the album's new electro dub sound while still being able to appreciate their quirky early spirit. Mosquito is definitely a must have record.
