How much more YYY's could you possibly pack into one DVD? Tell Me What Rockers to Swallow includes: a live show at the Fillmore (San Francisco); a Japanese Tour Documentary; 'They Don't Love You Like I Love You' (audience interview documentary); music videos ('Maps', 'Date with the Night', 'Y-Control' (unedited Spike Jonze version), and 'Pin'); and 'Maps' live at the MTV Movie Awards.
As Karen O plays a creature of pure impulse, the songs provide rigorous structure while they egg her on. The music worked just fine as stomping dance tracks, with Nick Zinner's boisterous guitar riffs matched to Brian Chase's unswerving drum beats. But the songs were more than basic propulsion. They were full of wide leaps and sharp angles using shards of blues, punk, metal and no-wave dissonance. She wasn't flirting with the audience: she was cutting loose. - The New York TImes
