Danger Radio - Punch Your Lights Out EP

Get out the dancing shoes, turn on the strobe lights and get ready to get down!  Danger Radio thoughtfully combines danceable disco, funk and jazz melodies and harmonies that make it difficult to sit still while listening to Punch Your Lights Out.  When listing to Danger Radio, I couldn’t help but think of how Panic! At the Disco combined burlesque and big band tones to their version of pop rock, which catapulted their career.  Danger Radio has the same mentality, just with a different vibe.

“Party Foul” is deservingly the first single off Punch, and is a hook-filled disco-driven funk jam.  “Keep it Up,” features snappy guitar licks and synthetic vocals, while “Sparkle Baby Shine” showcases the vocal tones of Andrew de Torres.

If Danger Radio doesn’t get your hips moving, then check your pulse.  Punch Your Lights Out, produced by Tom Pfaeffle (Gatsbys American Dream, Daphne Loves Derby), is a fresh look at what pop music can be.  I give the EP an 8 (out of 10).  I can’t wait to hear their full-length, scheduled to drop sometime in 2008!

Suggested Listening:  It’s an EP, just listen to the whole thing!
