Awesome album!
I thought this was much better than their first album. Amazing tracks to watch for being, "The City is at War", "Guilty pleasure" and "Kiss My Sass"
Again, with collaborations with Gym class heroes, the cobras have pulled it off again!
With an interesting mix of pop, rock and synth, this album is well worth picking up, whether you've heard of cobra starship before or not.
Luckily, this album avoids the problem the first one suffered, ...

Album Notes
Cobra Starship: Gabe Saporta (vocals); Ryland Blackinton (guitars); Victoria Asher (keyboard); Alex Suarez (bass guitar); Nate Novarro (drums). Additional personnel: Travis McCoy, V.I.P.. Cobra Starship's second song, "Guilty Pleasure" tells you almost everything you need to know about the band. Essentially a side-project of Midtown bassist/vocalist Gabe Saporta, the band caught fire as a result of their song "Bring It (Snakes on a Plane)" from the pre-fab cult movie of the same name. The thing is, Cobra Starship doesn't care if they're a guilty pleasure. In fact, they seem to be aiming for just such status. Songs such as "Kiss My Sass" and "Damn You Look Good and I'm Drunk" represent the perfect fusion of both Backstreet and Fall Out boys. "Smile for the Paparazzi" has a clattering electro-funk beat that may as well be from a Gloria Estefan song, and "Angie" could be a lost John Secada track. People with an axe to grind against emo AND pop are going to tear VIVA LA COBRA to shreds, but anyone who ever sang loudly and without shame to pop radio is going to wonder where this album has been all their lives.
