This November we will be releasing their latest EP (produced by Pulp's Steve Mackey) stateside, featuring the sloppy, sludgy, searing single “No” with MASSIVE guitars, cantankerous drums, and a defiant, vox maelstrom. It’s gonna gnarl through your speakers and bludgeon you with pure nihilism fuzz. Following “No” on the A-side is “Alas Salvation” a song so chewed up and spit out it could pass for The Upholsterers covering DNA. The B-side ditches the bulk of the grit and instead keeps things icy, mellow, and lonely with “Out on a Limb.” It’s a stately and necessary respite till you flip the wax and strap back in for the A-side. PLUS noted artist and photographer Nick Waplington has copiously tackled the cover art. It’s beautiful and violent use of color are a welcome and complimentary addition to this package.
So sit tight and take hold. Yak is poised to make noise and it’s in your best interest to get on board early and maybe JUST MAYBE you could be the coolest kid at school.
“No” will be available in the Third Man Records store and online retailers worldwide on Friday, November 13, 2015, and available for PRE-ORDER NOW.

Re: TMR336 Yak - No EP
I like the No song a lot.
Kinda reminds me of the early Yeah Yeah Yeah music playing

Re: TMR336 Yak - No EP
Slightly off topic, but their album is out and it's bloody amazing. Harbour The Feeling is probably the best song of the year (imo)
