Death of a Party formed in the summer of 2003 in the Oakland house party scene and quickly earned a loyal band of followers. With a dark, sometimes heavy, often dancey, post-punk sound and a manic live show compared to a "full-on, endorphin-charged gang fight", the Death of a Party are committed to delivering an exciting and unique experience for anyone willing to listen.

  • Death of a Party formed in the summer of 2003 in the Oakland house party scene and quickly earned a loyal band of followers. With a dark, sometimes heavy, often dancey, post-punk sound and a manic live show compared to a "full-on, endorphin-charged gang fight", the Death of a Party are committed to delivering an exciting and unique experience for anyone willing to listen. "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" with a "focus on artistic contradiction between the pounding bass and echoing riffs. " "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. " In 2007 Death of a Party toured the United States with The Lovemakers and in 2005, crossed the United States touring with the indie band Metric. The Death of a Party has also played with Bloc Party, The Plot to Blow Up the Eiffel Tower, Deerhoof, evening, Scarling. , Von Iva, The Mall, hey willpower, Black Ice, Vanishing, The Phantom Limbs, and Get Hustle amongst others. The band disbanded in 2009, which coincided with the release of an EP entitled "Erase the Ghost".
