Death of a Party formed in the summer of 2003 in the Oakland house party scene and quickly gained of followers. Their music has been compared to a "full-on, endorphin-charged gang fight."[1] "Lyrically and musically, The Death of a Party create a darkened world where the listener hears and envisions secrets and stories...full of complex literary themes and minimally intricate rhythms" [2] with a "focus on artistic contradiction between the pounding bass and echoing riffs." [3] "The band's jerky rhythms and popish punk hooks recall first-gen punks the Buzzcocks and the Clash. And it conjures up the kind of dark and paranoid imagery that had post-punks of that era reaching for the black eyeliner." [4]
