 best of their stuff so far December 27, 2008
M. pierce (az)
I've been hooked on the pops since hearing and seeing the video for miss-take and am proud to say I've got all three major albums they've put out so far. kis kiss kill kill is the best so far.
granted, it's not as fast paced as some of their previous songs are but it shows a massive amount o maturity intheir craft and a mroe fine tuned sound that's quite refreshing. it's awesome to actually hear a band actually blossom as they go along and this is a grand album if you love the pops. And although it has been stated before-horrorbeach2 is a great follow up to it's predecessor even the album art is nice to check out-throwing homage to vintage horror movie and film noir posters. and again with the cd art itslef, designed to look like an old film canister like bring it on was designed to look like an old lp.
so if you like the horror pops, rockabilly,psychobilly,the misfits,punk ska or just some good spooky themed swinging music, get this album.
Can't Help but Fall in Love with Horrorpops September 10, 2008

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 7, 2008

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!!!!!

It's not a bad album. It's not a great album. I picked this up because I have heard good things about the Horrorpops, but they are just a really standard rockabilly band.
Maybe they are better live, but the CD is pretty weak.
