Clap Your Hands Say Yeah celebrate the 20th anniversary of their landmark self-titled debut album with a worldwide tour and an exclusive new reissue, all over 2025. A heady blend of leftfield pop and melodic, exuberant indie rock, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah is unquestionably among the finest and most influential independent releases of the 2000s. The celebration officially gets underway with the premiere of Clap Your Hands Say Yeah’s original 2004 version of the fan favorite, “Heavy Metal”. The newly remixed and mastered track was recently discovered among the original project files and captures what Clap Your Hands Say Yeah founder and frontman Alec Ounsworth calls “a special moment in time – a young group of guys all piling into one hotel room to wake up and go to a real studio (!) to try to come up with something special just for the fun of it.” Besides the digital anniversary release featuring “Heavy Metal”’s original version, a special deluxe reissue arrives on limited edition vinyl LP early 2025 on CYHSY’s own label via Secretly Distribution, defiantly independent home to over two decades of Alec Ounsworth’s music.
