There are multiple groups by the name of Yawn: 1. YAWN is an experimental metal band based in Oslo, Norway. 2. Yawn is an indie rock band from Chicago, Illinois. Since forming in 2009, Chicago’s YAWN has drawn comparisons to the likes of Animal Collective, Yeasayer, and MGMT with their experimental sound, but the band has managed to keep things fresh and forward-thinking. YAWN released their sophomore LP, Love Chills, on September 9th, 2014 via Old Flame Records. Inspired by shaky romantic affairs, the cosmic, genre-bending album is like listening to the band’s own brand of electro-infused indie pop through a trippy, psychedelic filter, featuring buzzing guitars and warbling synth. The band also put together an album teaser video, featuring snippets of various Love Chills tracks set to appropriately mind-bending images. Much like 2011’s widely-praised Open Season, Love Chills is simultaneously unconventional and accessible, mixing off-kilter psychedelia with infectious pop hooks. Its ten tracks take listeners on a journey through lush soundscapes, peppered with driving beats and hazy, blissful melodies. Releases: YAWN E.P. (2009), YAWN REMIX! (2010), Open Season (2011), Open Season Remix (2012), Happy Tears EP (2012), Love Chills (2014), Day Trip E.P. (2015). 3.
