Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.
The featured article for Wednesday, 5 August 2026, is Yeah Yeah Yeahs (EP).
Yeah Yeah Yeahs is the debut extended play (EP) by the American indie rock band Yeah Yeah Yeahs. It was self-released on July 9, 2001, and reissued in 2002 by Wichita in the United Kingdom and Touch and Go in the United States. It was recorded as a demo over two days in early 2001 with producer Jerry Teel, and developed into their debut EP to land more shows. Yeah Yeah Yeahs features the band's early garage rock and art punk influences, and lead singer and lyricist Karen O's themes of romance and sex.
Yeah Yeah Yeahs topped the UK Indie Chart and had sold over 71,000 copies by the end of the decade. It was praised by critics for its unique sound and Karen O's performances, and named among the best releases of 2002 by The New York Times and NME. In 2024, Paste placed it among the 100 greatest EPs of all time.
