Yellow Fever, Bermuda Triangle
» A tour EP for west coasters to track down, plus a cool tour comic.
In an excitement only approximated by the Strange Boys live performance a few months back is news that fellow Austin dwellers YellowFever (that’s one word now ya’ll) have put out a self-released tour EP called Bermuda Triangle. Greater still is that they have been performing with local SF darlings Thee Oh Sees who have been sorta accompanying them on their national Summer 2010 tour. Given how much we love the not-too-long-ago release of the YellowFever self-titled LP on the Vivian Girl’s Wide World label and their dedicated performances at this year’s SXSW festival; a new release only invites further excitement.
The duo drums up a slightly spooky post-punk bit of breathy melodic coos on the title track, “Bermuda Triangle:” “Around the earth, we’re falling down, the gas is gone the plane is out of control…” And then the “ool” sound is repeated three times a-la your favorite Dadaist mantra of the minute. YellowFever posses a dynamic that thrives on the creation of synergistic progressions that make them the “must hear” band this summer.
