Is it just me or does this look like a ransom note. "Give us $50,000 & buy our new album or Coco the cat gets it." Probably just me.

Did Honey not realize it was Coco, not Cocoa! She's a blonde cat, right?

Yeah Yeah Yeahs Reveal Real Album Title, Release Date

Matthew Solarski reports:
That Squeak E. Clean, what a prankster! The Yeah Yeah Yeahs producer, whose real name is Sam Spiegel, recently bamboozled the folks at MTV.com when he announced that the new YYYs record would be a concept record about Karen O's cat, entitled Coco Beware. Turns out the whole thing was an elaborate joke. And really, do we expect anything less from the brother of Spike Jonze (real name Adam Spiegel)?

Now, for news of more verity: according to an official press release, the highly-anticipated follow-up to Fever To Tell will in fact be titled Show Your Bones. It will arrive March 28 (March 27 in the UK) via Dress Up/Interscope, preceded by the single "Gold Lion" the week before.

Ever-quotable Karen O had this to say about the new LP: "Show Your Bones is what happens when you put your finger in a light socket...maybe there is some of that electric current flowing through the tracks of our album illuminating us from the inside out for you to laugh at and cry to or fry to. Or not."

Still lost? Maybe YYYs drummer Brian Chase can clear things up: "In the early stages the music was STRETCHED WIDE and then tightened up." Or maybe not. As mentioned, Squeak E. Clean produced the disc, which was mixed with Alan Moulder (My Bloody Valentine, Nine Inch Nails, Depeche Mode, et al).

A February U.S. club tour is in the works, and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs official website, in addition to inducing seizures, alludes to full-scale American and European tours in April and May. For now you may drool over their date at All Tomorrow's Parties "United Sounds of ATP" festival, where they've assembled quite the coterie of openers:

05-13 East Sussex, England - Camber Sands Holiday Centre (All Tomorrow's Parties) *

* with Liars, TV on the Radio, Oneida, Blood Brothers, Ex Models, Celebration, Imaginary Folk, Tall Boys

In other presumably accurate news, spazz-punk trio the Seconds, featuring Brian Chase, will release their sophomore full-length on March 21 via 5RC.
