worst band in dc

a bunch of bros who really liked the killers formed a band called "the dance party".

IF YOU'VE NEVER heard the Prince George's County power pop quintet the Dance Party, you should know they didn't pick their name to be ironic. They really do want people to dance and party, as evidenced by their wild shows and goofy song titles like "Sex Disco" and "New Wave Drugz." In other cities, such a hedonistic musical approach might seem passe, but in the earnest D.C. scene, their rowdiness has made them stand out.

I can't look at this at work but holy shit, that quote is fucking stupid.

[dayronsoul]

Dude......I think we all really know who worst band in DC is.

Fierce allegiance.

[paidtheprice]

lol. my friend is in that band. that looks gross.

[dayronsoul]

They don't even have any music. I'm pissed.

[icountto1010101]

The Killers sound like Bruce Springsteen.
This shit sounds like Cheap Trick!!!
Fuck it, "Sacha Don't Sleep" is definitely an awesome song. This kinda rules.

Also, The Killers are a really good band.

[anton]

this shit is cool!!!!

this band definitely blows. i saw them at art-o-matic when brightest young things had their big gay jerking-off party that you had to rsvp via email. i was only there to see The Apes and Food For Animals but i stuck around for the dance party to see what all the hype was for. they actually put on an entertaining show but i only enjoyed it because i was standing far away from the (really annoying, drunk, yuppie) crowd. never in hell would i listen to their recorded music, and unless they opened for The Doors or Jimi Hendrix i would never even think about going to another one of their shows.

as for the Killers... they have some good songs... SOME good songs

[headcountrecords]

its catchy, but i would never listen to it

whatever happened to washington social club? weren't they going to be the next big thing?

[bobbywestfall]

this is bad. and fierce allegiance is bad.

but seriously, Group 36.

edit: did anyone notice that it says Dischord direct under their name on their myspace? I mean Dischord's current releases are pretty terrible, but seeing their name associated with this is pretty disappointing.

[aquateen]

^ dischord will do consignment for pretty much any local dc band.

for example: www.dischord.com/release/mon

you could even just email them if you want. they will take any local stuff, and when they can't sell it, they just distro it to someone else. i think they did that with coke bust records.

yeah dischord took coke bust records. but last i had understood they sold the rest to interpunk. i can sell to interpunk if i really want to, and they just like local bands.

people realized that the dismemberment plan wasn't really all that great, so there was no reason to listen to a band that was like a half-assed dismemberment plan.

i think you were the one who said this first to me, dan - "the worst genre of music is 'local'."

yeah. I like 80's new wave, but . . . not 2009-version 80's new wave?

I just watched that episode last night. God damn do I love that show.

"people realized that the dismemberment plan wasn't really all that great, so there was no reason to listen to a band that was like a half-assed dismemberment plan."


how the FUCK are you comparing washington social club to dismemberment plan?

[aquateen]

and you're wrong chris. dismemberment plan was ALWAYS great!
