This is really different, brave and creative. I love the no make-up, no plastic gunk, the real thing, the voice, that push, the power - wow! Most excellent!
the real thing lol
her voice is AMAZING. saw their recent uk tour... storming!
Why haven’t I heard this yet?!? I fell in love the first time I heard her nearly a decade ago.She is wildly impressive. I’d love to jam out with her. Or try to... She’s lifetimes more talented then I.
Loved Bizness and gangsta in highschool, and I'm glad to see they are still doing bangers, will be looking for more.
I've seen them so many times and was on them in like 2008! What a group of TALENTED individuals! The new album isn't my FAVE in comparison to their previous stuff, but I'm enjoying their evolution of sound
Was lucky enough to see these in Benicàssim this summer 👏👏👏can’t wait to see them again
love love love love love them! she is such a unique and important and necessary voice
Merril has really great powerful voice, she could've picked the easy way as a solo like mariah Carey and other similar acts, but hell know she has chosen authenticy over popularity... Way to go tune-yards👏👏👏
It's the Afro-Cuban Haitian connection.
yeah right loooooooool
This one's more than worth waiting through the ad 🤘
Been waiting for this one! Woohoo!!!
I saw these guy in the uk and met them they are such an awesome band ❤️❤️❤️
This album really had to grow on me... I love Merrill’s work, but, when ‘private life’ came out, I had a lot of raw feelings and it hit right in there. I gave it a shot because Tune-Yards is just so good.
Hamir is a really good fit, as well.
i listened to this around last year and i was repulsed, but i feel like i just wasn't ready because after coming back i love the new shit
KEXP must be one hell of a radio station. Im going to have to start listening
This is great. I really hope they continue to mine this unique musical vein.
She’s doing her thing for sure. What an awesome ind
She's on the soundtrack to Sorry To Bother You, so I decided to give her another visit after many years. So glad I did. Nice to see such talent again.
Amazing as ever
I agree..they are for real..the drummers beats!! They r for real!!
i was so scared for what i read in the coments, but man, that was awesome. i dont know what are you talkin about., they sound like a more theatrical and acoustic moby in the late 90s or early 2000s. plus, her voice is amazing. the only thing i missed was her girl band :c
Tobias Funke on bass
DUTCHswift Tobias Funky (and moustacheless)
Superb. Unique. Musical. Happy.
Wow. Absolutely amazing.
fantastic amazing good
The band reminds me of the Tom Tom Club of the 80’s. I appreciate the creativity in all aspects. Her commitment to understanding and discussing white privilege is noble. Proud Bay Arean here. We need more.
Really unique sound! I like it!
Amazing!! :D
really cool sounds
So awesome.
Saw this just lying around on the Apple Music recommended section and thought I’d give it a spin and oh god I think this is my favorite new album from a band I’d never heard of. Beast material!
Ctm q guea acabo de escuchar!! Hace rato que no me volaban la cabeza así, grandes del sonido, reales
Amazing opener - like Afropixies or something. And then segueing into the polit-groovy Your Hands. I love music that delivers a strong message while boldly staking its aesthetic claim. Strong!
One part Laurie Anderson, one part Tom Tom Club, one part I don't know what...
They opened for David Byrne's American Utopia show in Atlanta last night. Can't believe I'd never heard of them before.
Adore!!
You guys got anymore of that tUnE yArDs
I like this performance, and I saw them play live about a month ago or so and they were great live. After a few listens of the new album I think it is decent, although I feel like they've lost some of their magic. One huge major attraction I had for this band was her live drum/percussion loops (+ all the vocal loops she would have on top of that) as opposed to having a live drummer. The drummer is amazing and can groove hard, but I was attracted to her multitasking live. To me that was part of the charm and performance that I am missing the most, because now it just sounds like pop music to me.
Isaiah Quino She's till doing vocal loops and I suspect she's doing percussion loops on some songs too, but the move to a live band was largely done on the Nikki Nack tour. I like the loops too, but overall I found Nikki Nack was a better live show. Haven't seen this live yet.
I was dubious after seeing a couple of the early tv appearances in which the new singles weren't quite grooving yet. But seeing them live was a whole different story. It was incredible and the songs and performance had so much power.
I do feel like I like Nikki Nack better than this album. But the social implications of what she is talking about, especially white privilege and the essential colonialism of sampling from African/Black musical heritage makes this a more "important" album, if that makes sense.
How is she able to record the vocal part for the loop station while the drum is playing? I'm trying to do this with rc boss 505 with a drum player per, but everytime the sound of the drum enters into the microfon and i record it for mistake. If you know how yo do it please give me an answer pleeeeeaseeeee
Notice the mic is not facing the direction of the drummer. It's also probably not too hot A.K.A. the signal is not super high
THAT BASS!!! OOF 😍
Needs more uke

4:33 GO Amir GO! Sick!!!
genius
african soul......................
Damn. It’s there. Right there. Yep, that’s exactly what it feels like right now.
Can´t shake the Juana Molina feel, great music tho, love them
This album really wasn’t for me, but I’m much happier with the new album.
i will remind your performance with love
FUJIROCK2018 DAY1 REDMARQUEE LIVE 👏👏👏
mmmmm interesting
What is there not to get about Merrill. I never get why tYs are still seemingly unknown
👀👀💗SO 😎🎸🎶 📢💋❤cooLBuddy ExcelleNt❤
I've had a mild interest in, and a challenging relationship with this band for a while. I instantly judged this book by its cover, and deemed the spelling of its name as pretentious, but I pressed on. I'd heard some songs I liked, and others I very much did not--this is an uncomfortable place for me, and doesn't happen that often. I've tried to keep an open mind, approach their music without preconceptions, and enjoy it for what it is.
When I saw a KEXP video, I was excited--they always have such great performances and interviews, and have turned me on to many bands in the past. Clearly THIS was going to be where I came to understand this band, and put the uncomfortable love/hate feelings behind me. At least part of that would prove to be true...
It was relatively late, and being a bit tired, I thought I'd catch up on my daily youtube through the comfort of chromecast from my bed. I put a number of videos in queue including a few music performances, and this video nearer to the end. I had underestimated my sleepyness, and a few videos in, I lost the battle of will to slumber, and drifted off.
BUT LO! What was this God awful shrieking?! I awoke to a terrible sound; I was confused, scared, angry, and scrambling for the remote. I immediately blamed youtube autoplay for waking me up so poorly. Then it came to me; I remembered putting this in the queue, and disappointment replaced anger. My subliminal self already knew what I didn't want to: THIS IS NOT FOR ME. 0/10
lol omg
Maybe using it as an alarm is not the best way to enjoy this music.
you have such a nice way of writing saying things
I couldn’t stop laughing reading this out loud to the guys in my car as we listened
What do you mean mean mean I re re repeat my my self in all my so so songs? Honestly, Honestly your giving me a heart attack ak ak
I want to marry Merrill!
I think their name now is without capital letters :)
interesting ideas, but some of the songs are hard to listen to
now that's an agreeable comment. i love this band and a solid majority of their recorded music, this preformance is very difficult on the ears at times though
While tUne yArds has always been "out there" stylistically (atonality, etc.), this album feels "out there" in a non-cohesive manner. Not my thang.
One of those pretty far out KEXP performances where I sit with my mouth open for like 5 minutes in pure shock trying to decide if its good or bad. Verdict was the latter though, just not my cup of tea.
She really has a thing for hands huh?
I came to fuckn kill myself
gAr BaGe
Should swap the t and the y for this band's name, would suit way more
Hah gotem!
Simply unlistenable
Quality goods, but these folks sound like bored high school music teachers that wanted to jam after school in the teacher's lounge and it just took off. Inspired and they got skillz, but it's a little "what do the kids think is hip?" That all being said, "Hands" may be the Song of Century right now.
Holy Christ this band is beyond horrible.
They threw out everything interesting about them with the new album.
Heyman Heyguys "I didn''t like this subjective piece of interesting music so they're not interesting anymore."
So, they need to sound cookie-cutter, like far too many bands these days?
Sjw band
Insightful commentary.
