It has been long time waiting, but FINALLY, after many months of being forced to refresh their Myspace page, Danger: Radio is releasing their EP, Punch Your Lights Out, on iTunes. Before now, Danger: Radio had only been selling at their shows, a sure let down to fans who hadn't been able to see them. No longer!
I've been crazy for Danger: Radio for longer than I care to remember. I picked on them along with Andrew De Torres' exploits with The Scene Aesthetic, way back before D:R somehow got their original Myspace deleted. Since then, I've been able to see their style of music grow and evolve in ways that I'd be forced to use adjectives that are synonymous to "good."
Danger: Radio is a crazy little quintet out of Washington who's forte is for the wild and dancey. With an eccentric, and truly unique form of dance rock, mixing classic 80s vibes and funk, with modern rock and alt.-indie vibes and their fun/singable lyrics, these guys just have the need to party coming out of every section of your speakers. I have never failed in showing Danger: Radio to a friend and not see them desperately hide the embarrassment when they realized their body naturally had started moving to the groove.
D:R's style for Punch Your Lights Out is refined from their completely original sound, previously heard on their limited released album, The Difference Between Love and Envy; but their new material is perfected, mastered, and a real treat. Essentially, this is a compilation of all the demos they've produced over the past year or so, but ever so worth the measly 5$ it will cost you. All 5 songs on the EP keep the mood, and keep your body moving the entire time. Party Foul gets funky down to a science, while you get a taste of the latest D:R offers with two of their more recent works, Sparkle Baby Shine and Keep It Up.
The Punch Your Lights Out EP is a huge break and relief from the serious and introspective mumbo-jumbo that music sometimes gets dragged down in. This will stretch out you limbs and get you on your feet! Warning: Side effects may be random dance parties and fun times. In some severe cases, extreme euphoria has been noted in listeners. In the event that happiness continues for longer than the length of the album, please be sure to contact your local physicians at Danger: Radio's Myspace to catch some of their latest material.
