Karen O at Home - The Demos
As I promised when reviewing the latest YYY's album (which still hasn't grown on me, sorry), here are the fairly unknown Karen O demos, which have been labelled Karen O at Home.
The demos have an interesting leak story, which was made very public on the internet. Karen O gave the disc to Dave Sitek (TV on the Radio, and super mega producer) who must've forgotten about it, as when he suddenly up and left his NYC appartment he left it in one of two suitcases he left behind. Upon finding the suitcases, some fellow found the disc, gave it to a mate, who in turn ripped it, put it on the net, then gave it to another mate as a present, apparently. Dave Sitek went mental and wrote some angry blog posts, including this gem:
"you are a tired and confused animal who has no grasp on consequences"
which was then followed by an apology. Even the dude who leaked it apologised, saying he wished he hadn't done it and "felt shitty", while good ole sexy Karen just said "shit happens".
The demos themselves are not very good, and are skeletal at best, but they are interesting. Most YYYs / Karen O fans will find these interesting, and as most people seem not to have heard them I present them to you.
Theres no formal track listing for this disc, but Karen O has said that track 6 is called "Pumpkin" and track 7 is called "Snakes and Worms".
