"Loud, smart and profane all at once,
Convicts has a desperate, hungry edge that'll make you wonder how the band has survived for 17 years - and why you haven't heard them more." - USA TODAY
"...an invigorating slop-rock attack with ace melodies: 'Gunslingers' sounds like some lost pop-rock gem from 1973." - ROLLING STONE
You Am I are bonafide stars in their native Australia where, since 1992, the band has set a record for three consecutive straight-in-at-No. 1 albums, bagged seven ARIAS, picked up some heavyweight admirers/touring partners (Oasis, Soundgarden, Sonic Youth), and been asked to gig with the likes of The Who and The Rolling Stones. Their newest album,
Convicts -- the first on US label Yep Roc Records -- is proof why they're stars Down Under. From the feedback-strewn opening punch of "Thank God I've Hit the Bottom" to the immediacy of insta-hits like "Friends Like You" and "It Ain't Funny How We Don't Talk Any More,"
Convicts is a lean rock'n'roll machine that has You Am I poised to make an even larger impression than ever overseas.
