   About The Party Faithful


"An on-the-rise local indie act for fans of melodic, vocal-driven pop." - New York Magazine

"...after replay number two or three, it becomes easier to pick up on the amount of epic-goodness the band has managed to cram into each track... Nothing feels out of place and there are moments when the band gets into an ecstatic rhythm unmatched by most of their contemporaries." - soundsuck.com

"It's a pity Creation Records the now defunct legendary U.K. indie label isn't around to organize a package tour around The Party Faithful with Felt and The House of Love, or maybe the late great Swervedriver. The band's best new song, "Revolution Fuse," an optimistic slow builder recalls Morrissey's glam-rock albums from the early '90s, with nifty and natural turns of phrase 'Though we are older, the night is young.' " - The Day, New London

CMJ Showcase Review - "This band really sounds tight live and has everything that you would think could take them to the forefront of the music scene in Brooklyn...Let's put it this way: If you like Morrissey, you'll like The Party Faithful. Moreover, if you just like seeing pinpoint execution of song writing in a tight and experienced band then you'll love The Party Faithful." - Witness Production Program

**********

The Party Faithful [th uh pahr-tee feyth-fuh l]
Noun
1. The body of fiercely loyal members of any league or group. 2. A Brooklyn-based, guitar-driven indie rock/pop band, which launched in 2007 and has a mission: to cultivate thoughtful, seductive “songscapes”, and execute them with pinpoint accuracy and maximum energy.



**********

In early 2008, The Party Faithful unveiled Seven Cycles, a solid 7-song record that's "...full of more of the same addictive, tasteful, upbeat indie-pop they're known for."(– The L Magazine.) It is now available at shows, on iTunes, or through the button below:

Apr 11 2008 5:15 PM

hey thanks! now i know you're very committed so i wont even ask you - but we're toying with the idea of getting someone to play BASS in TMT instead of me. so i can play 2nd guitar and some other things. if you know anyone with a little bounce in the BASS please send them OUR WAY. or another guitar player. or anyone. we've just got a trombone lady and a 2nd synth lady. it's turning into a chick band. as long as we don't get as big as MARGOT and the nuclear whatnot i think we'll be ok.
