Clap Your Hands Say Yeah - Some Loud Thunder

Clap Your Hands Say Yeah is an American indie rock group based in Brooklyn, New York and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania whose members include Alec Ounsworth, Lee Sargent, Robbie Guertin, Tyler Sargent, and Sean Greenhalgh. Their debut album, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, was self-released in 2005.

The band, whose members met at Connecticut College, started out by playing weekly shows at Pianos in Manhattan. They are notable for achieving their initial fame and commercial success via the Internet rather than through a record label. Shortly after the release of their first album, they received attention from numerous MP3 blogs and a favorable review from Pitchfork Media, who gave the band a "Best New Music" commendation. The ensuing demand for the album was so great that the band was forced to repress the CD, as the initial production run was too small.

Here's a Track off their first album: "Is This Love?"


Some Loud Thunder is the second album by Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. The album was produced by Dave Fridmann, known for his work with Mercury Rev and The Flaming Lips. It debuted at #47 on the Billboard charts with 19,000 copies sold.
