Like a left-coast version of Controller.Controller, You Say Party! We Say Die! paint a sonic picture of a disco overrun by hopped-up goths. On Hit The Floor!, the Abbotsford, BC collective hit the ground running with "Cold Hands! Hot Bodies!" and the two-part "Stockholm Syndrome," which tumble into each other like a DJ mix. It's not all about butt-shaking, though — the album's sharp, blurted vocals and breakneck rhythms add a dose of punk personality.. Though it's lacking in lyrical depth a bit, Hit The Floor! is ragged, dark and danceable and doles out enough solid punches to justify the band's obsession with exclamation points.
