You Say Party! We Say Die!: XXXX
Canadian dance-punk band, You Say Party! We Say Die! release their third full length album, XXXX finally in the US after its been available for several months in Canada. The album’s release coincides with a major US tour.
Being a dance band with female vocals, You Say Party! We Say Die! is sure to get comparisons to Karen O sang in “Maps”.
The album’s major flaw is finishing strong. The album seems all downhill after “Laura Palmer’s Prom” which is the seventh track on the album. XXXX goes out with a whimper with the most timid and least dancy songs on the album.
Overall, the album puts forth some great tracks but its hard to get over the weak ending. For the first half of the album, it appears that it will be great and then it ends mired in mediocrity.
Rating: 6.3/10
