Cobra Starship - Viva La Cobra

...because I know you are all good children and you are sure to go buy Cassettes On Fire merchandise after downloading their EP I am giving you a present. This is the sophomore effort by emo-dance-cheeze upstarts, Cobra Starship. This is the diametric opposite to Cassettes On Fire's aesthetic. Cobra Starship are glory-sucking spacehogs shamelessly boogie-ing their way to a Hot Topic near you but I have to admit that this is one of the best times the mainstreamo scene will ever have. The album is immaculately produced and loaded with infectious electro/emo crossover gems. I mean, it really is amazing... and fun... but I don't feel the least bit bad uploading it for you all. By all means, STEAL THIS RECORD... because you wouldn't really wanna be caught buying it, would you?

Release Notes

Known for their recklessly energetic live appearances, Downstairs have developed themselves a truly fascinating sound. Compared to leading names of experimental punk and rock (At The Drive-In, Fugazi, ...Trail of Dead) the Helsinki-based four-piece combine influences from furious hardcore passion to catchy pop melodies not to forget electronic buzz.

The power of this hook-laden mixture has become obvious: Both debut EPs "Shotgun Hullabaloo" (released in 2005) and "Coward Constrictor Cries for Chivalry", released the following year, have received wide interest in the local indie scene, among pop and punk fans alike.

With over a hundred sweaty shows in and outside Finland (including supporting several international top-acts such as The Locust, Raised Fist and Blindside) Downstairs are beginning to make a name as Finland.s most interesting rising alternative band.
