As we told you before, Vancouver dance punkers You Say Party! We Say Die! are releasing their newest disc, XXXX, through Paper Bag Records on September 29.
Along with that, they're now doing a cross-Canada fall tour that should be a breeze for these tour vets. Since their first release, Hit the Floor!, YSP!WSD! have played shows all over North America, Japan, China and even pissed off some giant Germans while on tour in Europe, causing vocalist Becky Ninkovic to be thrown out of the legendary Rock and Roll Herberge.
Although YSP!WSD! are known for their fast-paced, distorted punk sound, they've apparently opted to include some more rhythm and soul this time around, after teaming up with Tegan and Sara producer Howard Redekopp to record XXXX.
And even though we reported back in June that YSP!WSD! were planning their first U.S. shows since bass player Stephen O'Shea was banned from entering the States until 2011 (for trying to cross the border without a visa in 2006), no dates have been confirmed, though the group tell us they're working on that.
