Cobra Starship scored a hit this summer with "Bring It (Snakes on a Plane)," a fun pop-punk tribute to a buzzed-about movie no one ended up seeing. Like the movie, Cobra Starship's debut doesn't have much going for it aside from that tune. Following in the tracks of Panic! at the Disco and Fall Out Boy, Cobra put out high-energy, techno-fied emo songs with exhausting song titles such as "Send My Love to the Dance Floor I'll See You in Hell (Hey Mister DJ)." But without Fall Out Boy's innocent charm or Panic!'s cabaret theatricality, Cobra Starship just seem like some punks crashing a make-out party. On the creepy "It's Warmer in the Basement," frontman Gabe Saporta comes across as a perv when he intones in a nasally voice, "You can't escape now/I've got you locked inside this room." And on the vaguely funky "Keep It Simple," he promises to make a girl's dreams come true. But there's a catch. "I ain't got much for you," Saporta reveals. Same thing goes for the tunes.
