Drop Dead, Gorgeous are hailing from Denver, USA and this is their latest e.p. containing six songs. I must admit I have never heard of this band until this release and now I am happy I dug it up from the underground. It is hard to describe the music of this band, but I will try. In the song called Cyanide they mix melody of pop punk, electronica, some post punk and post hardcore along with harsh hardcore breakdowns. I am usually fan of electronica use if it is used wisely which is the case here. The vocals are mostly nice melodic with great vocal lines, but they also melt to hardcore screams here and there. Most of the songs is up tempo with some smartly done tempo changes to refresh the song itself. Lyrics are personal and dealing with how to cope with a loss, fighting your inner demons, hope and despair, I love it! I really enjoyed listening to this one, it is quite refreshing and I would like to listen and watch this live once. My personal favorite is Six Feet, also Feels Like Forever, but I love the e.p. as a whole! I recommend this one.
