| | Description | Their third release finds the band perfectly poised between the raw punk energy of their 2004 debut, "Hell Yeah", and the brash, singalong pop of 2006's "Bring It On". While never dropping their trademark sexy, horror flick flair, "Kiss Kiss Kill Kill" brings back the rawness and immediacy that's made them the premier touring band in the scene. They just finished two tours with the Dropkick Murphys and a tour with Danzig, have shared the stage with the likes of Rancid and The Offspring, and have been on several Warped Tour runs. RIYL: Nekromantix, Rev. Horton Heat, Siouxsie And The Banshees, X, Stray Cats, surf, punk, ska, and good ol' rock 'n' roll. | |

 Worth the wait Feb 09, 2008
By Stuart Sutton
"trekman1420"
You know how it goes: a band you never heard of, you stumble across a previous release and it knocks your socks off. Quick what else have they done? YES! They had an even earlier CD! You snap that up and it's great.
And...then...you...wait...and...wait...for...the...next....cd.
Finally it's coming out and the anticipation builds. It comes in the mail from Amazon and you're afraid to listen to it. Here's one of your favorite bands and you've been burned before under this circumstance (I'll never forgive Good Riddance for their final studio release).
Not to worry. Kim is even better on guitar, Patricia's vocals are perfect for these songs and the songs themselves are more varied in their themes. There's still the requisite creepy selection (Hitchcock Starlet & Highway 55 are spooky) and Horror Beach Pt. II is even better than it's predecessor.
Each listen reveals more about each song and you can just see the go-go dancers from their stage show bopping along to the rhythm.

Can't Help but Fall in Love with Horrorpops Sep 10, 2008
By Maggie Mae
This rockabilly band has gotten more attention than most underground bands in their genre, but I think it's because of their creative artwork and constant innovation. Their main following is in Europe, but since doing the Warped tour they have gained a following in the United States. Everything about the group is interesting: their look, image, style and sound just all fit and mold perfectly. You can't help but love and want to listen to them again and again.
This is their third release and add their rockabilly mixed with new wave and a sorta goth punk. This time adding a gothic side of punk is a stray from their previous releases, making it different, but I love it all. Listen to "Missfit" which features an interlude with the melody you'll recognize of the classic song "Our House". I recommend it to any psychobilly fans with a flare for fun.

Phenomenal Work May 07, 2008
By Crucial BBQ
I was relatively late to start listening Psychobilly. I have usually listened street punk/Oi!, NYHC, and Ska (Please read my other reviews on my favorites!). However, I cannot definitely pass enjoying the HorrorPops' recent efforts at "Kiss Kiss Kill Kill." This album would be the best work ever done by the HorrorPops, both musically and lyrically. The band has obviously progressed in a good direction, since the release of "Hell Yeah!" and "Bring It On!."
I tend to conceptually parallel HorroPops's "Kiss Kiss Kill Kill" with Tiger Army's "III: Ghost Tigers Rise" because both have two previous albums leading up to the third releases, and both contain more mellow 50's-oriented songs, highlighted by the upright basses. Also, I consider both albums to be the best masterpiece by the bands, with respect to the songwriting. I am just wondering how the HorrorPops will manage the next album because they have set the standard very high. In this sense, Tiger Army's 4th effort "Music From Regions Beyond" failed to carry the high standard set at the previous 3rd album. I hope that the HorrorPops would pursue the same vein in the 4th album.
The top-notch songwriting of this album is well demonstrated by the following sequential songs; "Kiss Kiss Kill Kill," "Everything's Everything," and "Hitchcock Starlet." It is always thrilled to listen these three songs in order. I can listen them with 10,000 repeats for sure! These songs are very beautifully written, especially "Hitchcock Starlet," which is my favorite song of the album. The band had never written such sensitive tunes at the two previous albums. These songs are not typical Psychobilly songs, which is good thing to make differences.
That said, this album is phenomenal on many aspects. The vocal, upright basses, and guitar works are just perfect to give a birth to the true music in the genre of Psychobilly. Actually, this album can be easily accessible to the wider audiences, not only for Psychobilly fans, but also for fans of good oldies or rock in general. The summer around the corner for the year 2008, this album "Kiss Kiss Kill Kill" should be perfect music to listen to, when you drive the car, or when you BBQ. Also, make sure to pick up the recent album by LA based Rezurex, because they are good too.
PLAY LOUD so your neighbors can listen the HorrorPops as well!!!!!

 Horrorpops are back ! Feb 17, 2008
By W. Skidmore
I couldn't wait to buy this cd and hear it since I've been a Horrorpops fan since the first cd 'Hell Yeah', which I consider to be a classic. (by 'classic' I mean that every song on it is near perfect) I was somewhat disappointed with their second release 'Bring it On'...so I was full of high hopes that this one would be great, and it is ! On first listen I thought "this is really good"...now every time I hear it I love it more and more; I keep hearing things in it that I didn't notice at first. Can't wait to see them in concert in a few weeks. The first single/video is "heading for the disco", which to me is the weakest track on the cd. Almost every other song on it, has some really cool unique quality vocal or guitar riff to it, so it's hard to pick favorites. "hitchcock starlet" is an amazing song though. The art work inside the cd is also great, doing parodies of classic old horror films. Buy it...you won't regret it. :)

Cool! Didn't Disapoint. Feb 05, 2008
By Shaun Henry
"I Win"
I love this band. I saw them live back in September with the Dropkick Murpheys and they were phenominal. They put on an awesome live show. And that energy that I felt when I saw them perform can be felt when listening to their newest album Kiss, Kiss, Kill, Kill. I was truely impressed not only with lead singer Patricia Day's vocal range and clarity but also with the overall musicianship and song structure. This is a great ska-punk/psychobilly album and I strongly recommend this release for Horrorpops fans and those new to their work.
