I’ve written about London-based indie-rock outfit Yuck quite a bit this year. Probably because–go figure–they’re one of my favorite breakout bands of 2011. They’re cool mostly because they’re doing their own thing without asking for anyone’s opinion. Their music has been repeatedly described as lo-fi, 1990’s-inspired rock but it really stands out in its own way; they’ve got great synergism. And the drummer has an awesome fro. Their videos are weird as hell but the music is great and that’s what matters. They recently released the b-sides of their self-titled debut. While these tracks are very typical Yuck (but not yucky in any way ha-ha-ha) it’s easy to see how they wouldn’t fit in with the rest of the album. If you haven’t listened to the full length album I’d highly recommend doing so. Once you’ve whet your taste buds to their sound, download the songs linked below.
