you say party we say die

you say party! we say die! got their start in april 2004 with their independently released ep entitled “dansk wad” (dance squad). today “hit the floor” has been critically acclaimed and their music is the finest variety of dancefloor post-punk, complete with female hollering and an attitude to melt the hearts of young men (and women) everywhere.

you say party! we say die! – the gap (between the rich and the poor)
fusing the leftist party-punk with the dark, militant dramatics they neatly strip punk rock and politics alike (one and the same, really) to just get with the beat. nocturnal guitar stabs, mournful harmonies, dance-mother-fucker bass, and clanging hardcore beats advance the band’s agenda of overthrowing, well, something. the instruments still dip into martial call-and-response. this band has a knack for emphatic codas that all but slip its agitprop past the brain’s trusting hook receptors. they are going to take ‘em down in numbers one by one.
