Tiny Engines welcomed Chicago, IL’s Yeesh to their roster earlier this year. The label issued the band’s sophomore LP, Confirmation Bias, this past Summer. The LP/CD is Out Now.
Yeesh are set to head back out on the road for more shows including some Texas shows with Carl Sagan’s Skate Shoes. Full tour dates listed below. Tour poster here.
Confirmation Bias premiered in full on The AV Club and the band was just named one of ‘Five Rising Chicago Artists You Need to Hear’ by Consequence Of Sound.
The new LP will follow up the band’s 2015 debut full-length, No Problem, on Already Dead Tapes & Records. You can stream that album, as well as the entire band discography, on Bandcamp.
Yeesh functions like a less-sardonic Shellac, using chest-rattling bass lines and prickly guitars in the same way, but with a twinge of optimism that makes all that tension rewarding. – The AV Club
The Chicago trio don’t dodge genres, but rather play around with them. They deliver lines with the heart of emo but the scratches of post-punk. On this year’s Confirmation Bias, the group’s sophomore LP, Yeesh explore territory that’s equal parts noisy and introspective. They’re reviving a post-hardcore sound that touches on Japandroids’ energy and Cloud Nothings’ anger… – Consequence Of Sound
Chicago three-piece Yeesh specialize in needling, fussy, and elaborately constructed bits of math-punk. – Stereogum
Tiny Engines welcomes Chicago three-piece Yeesh to the roster for the release of their sophomore LP, Confirmation Bias. While the band has been around since 2010, they have truly hit their stride with their first two full-lengths. On their sophomore LP the band rides the wave of momentum from their well-received debut full-length, No Problem, issued in the Spring of 2015 on Already Dead Tapes & Records. Continuing the trajectory from their debut LP, Confirmation Bias sees the band honing their sound even further. Yeesh pull from many different strains of the indie rock cannon to create something unique, yet familiar. From the sharp, twisted edges of post-punk to noisy grunge to melodic post-hardcore with strains of emo, Yeesh’s songwriting moves swiftly and slyly, never standing still for too long. Yes, the band covers a hell of a lot of ground but they do it all naturally and with supreme confidence. With Confirmation Bias, Yeesh move beyond their influences and morph into a full rock behemoth that demands your attention.
