And throw a bit of cow dung...

Yeah Yeah Yeahs are currently in the midst of writing and recording the follow-up to 2006’s acclaimed album ‘Show Your Bones.’

Wishing us Happy New Year (a mere 19 days late) on their Myspace blog, the New York trio confirmed their getting busy this year having spent much of the past year travelling and throwing cow dung at each other. What else?

They write

“We have a wet and wild feeling about 2008 and we're not kidding.  YYYs are currently writing and recording another record. A chunk of December was spent on a musical farm in Mass throwing cow dung at each other, making music makes us do strange things.

“Holidays brought adventures and performances into the YYY foreground.  Nick defected to Mexico where he swam with dolphins, made friends with bats in caves with lakes, got into fights with teenage hotel managers and climbed pyramids.

“Brian froze his balls off in Brooklyn. Karen went backpacking in Europe, it's something mostly young broke students do but with the dollar so weak it was still expensive.”
