CD Reviews
YAYER!! The Thrashening!!!

"Andrew WK's "Party Hard" RULES. It does not SERVE in the slightest, with huge Riffage and Berserker-metal thrashing madness. We've been waiting ten years for rock to receive another wake-up call since Kurt Cobain gave us "...Teen Spirit". Here it is, laying the smackdown on y'all. I... LIKE IT!!!"
Unpretentious Fun

"I'm really getting a kick out of the folks panning this stuff. I guess unless a song is written as a tuneless dirge intoning some really, really meaningful...something....the self-involved yuppies out there just can't relate. If your name is Lance...you drive a Beemer...and you actually know people with names like Buffy...this AIN'T for you.
If, on the other hand, you think red meat, cigarettes and bourbon should be mandatory....and can remember when bands simply liked to have fun.....you will understand.
Dated? Sure. But powerful and catchy.
Check out the review in April's Maxim."
Saviors of music? Not quite. But very cool.

"I really don't get what everyones' problem with this song is. They aren't the saviors of music, but they're someone who is out to have a good time. I see "Party Hard" as just a song to bang your head to, it's just a rockin' good time! In a way I guess they ARE saviors in a sense, because they differ with two things that most rock groups always have/do these days: they don't have a DJ and trying to make their music sound like fxcking rap music, and they're not whining about some old "tough time" they had in their life.
It's just a fun, rockin' song and it deserves a listen if you haven't already heard it. It's actually pretty catchy..."
Hair metal...for the new millenium?

"Andrew WK's new single Party Hard is either a work of genius, or complete and utter crap. It's that kind of single, it's that kind of artist.What is this? Well, after watching the video and hearing this piece I guess you'd call it some kind of new (nu?) hair metal. Big, dumb power chords, a lot of hair and headbanging, big loud drums, dumb lyrics, etc., etc...So why fault it for what it is? Why bother? Doesn't strike me as if Mr. WK set out to split the atom or anything, so give the man credit for producing a new, stoopid, loud, idiotic party anthem. And for better or worse, I see this song being played many years from now in many, many parties...Whether Andrew WK completely disappears or not after this, who knows. But Party Hard just may be able to infect millions..."
