Fun and full of promise

"Operator Please is basically a younger, cleaner, Australian version of Yeah Yeah Yeahs, which definitely isn't as bad thing. "Yes Yes Vindictive" is the group's debut CD, and it's pretty decent. The best track by far is "Get What You Want," an intense, high-energy song. Other highlights include "Just a Song About Ping Pong," which features some amazing vocal Olympics by the lead singer; "Other Song," a more mellow number that incorporates nice female harmony; and "Pantomime," the most relaxed song on the album that demonstrates the band's versatility.
I enjoyed this CD and think Operator Please has a lot of potential. We'll see what they come up with next."
