A small quote from NME.
But the album’s most bizarre “What the fuck was that I just heard?” moment comes in the guise of the show-stealing ‘Phenomena’. We swear that Karen’s partially lifted the chorus from LL Cool J’s 1997 Top 10 hit ‘Phenomenon’, and simply fiddled with the pluralisation. Even better, it sounds like she’s grinding her crotch against our ears, and is probably where fans of Yeah Yeah Yeahs’ debut will find their gateway into ‘Show Your Bones’.
heh

I said almost exactly that when I heard that song. Which is why I like it so. The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, IMO, are some of the most talented artists to come out of that whole retro new wave/punk/electro revival a few years back and I'd go down whatever road they push me towards.
