5 stars The Bridge from Fever to Tell to Show Your Bones
This EP is fantastic and totally worth your time and money. It captures the raw live energy of the band and oozes awesomeness. More tribal and primative than Show Your Bones, but more glossy than Fever to Tell, this EP is a perfect place even for a new fan to start their love for the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, say... if they don't want to shell out for a full album.

2 stars I'll say it
I really really like their two full-length CDs "Fever To Tell" and "Show Your Bones," and I find "Is Is" very very disappointing. I may not be yer typical YYYs fan because I like "Show Your Bones" even better than "Fever To Tell," "Show Your Bones" is brilliant, in my opinion. Even so I don't think "Is Is" matches even "Fever To Tell," and the first person that wants my copy of "Is Is" can have it.
