Yuck is an indie rock band that formed in late 2009. Original band memebers, Daniel Blumberg and Max Bloom, were part of a previous band, Cajun Dance Party, but wanted to be more involved with the creative process and started writing and playing together on their own. Sounding like American 90's rock, Yuck has been compared to Sonic Youth, Dinosar Jr., and Pavement. When Danny and Max finally decided to do some recordings, they recruited drummer Jonny Rogoff and bassist Mariko Doi, and now and then Danny's little sister Ilana contributes vocals. They have a single self titled album that was released in 2011 by Fat Possom Records.
On stage they seem to be really absorbed by the music they are playing and they sound crisper live than they do on their record, check out their show at SxSW last year if you are really curious: http://youtu.be/VSmlLV1A5ow
