Regarded as one of the best live bands of recent times with the iconic Karen O at the helm on vocals, Nick Zinner on guitar and Brian Chase on drums, Yeah Yeah Yeahs are set to release their first music DVD 'Tell Me What Rockers To Swallow' in October. The disc features electric live footage (including previously unreleased songs), an audience documentary by acclaimed film/music video director Spike Jonze, exclusive backstage footage from Japan, the bands music promos to date, and their performance at the US MTV Movie Awards in New York earlier this year.

The single 'Y Control' is taken from Yeah Yeah Yeahs debut album of 2003, 'Fever To Tell', which has been certified Gold in the the UK and has sold more than 456,000 copies in America where the success of sinlge 'Maps' has rocketed the band from cult heroes into the alternative mainstream. On this side of the pond, the bands performance of the single on Top Of The Pops was a precious moment, a gem amid the tinsel of the Top 40. 'Maps' status as a modern classic was confirmed when the White Stripes covered the song during their encore at this years Reading Festival.

Special DVD features include:

*A 16 song live concert recorded earlier this year at the Fillmore in San Francisco.

*6 bonus live songs

*A Japanese tour documentary directed by Patrick Daughters (director of the 'Maps' and
'Date With The Night' videos)
