Cobra Starship Artist Snapshot:

Though seemingly a one-off emo group started by former Midtown singer/bassist Gabe Saporta to support the Hollywood thriller SNAKES ON A PLANE with the propulsive single "Bring It (Snakes on a Plane)," Cobra Starship proved to be a full-fledged outlet for the performer's more dance-oriented inclinations. The act's second album, VIVA LA COBRA!, featured production and songwriting contributions by Fall Out Boy's Patrick Stump, cementing Starship's status as a key player in the pop-savvy, radio-ready branch of emo-rock.

Review

Alternative Press (p.204) - "Every single one of WHILE THE CITY SLEEPS' swaggering 11 tracks is immediately likable...He piles on layers of synth-beats and angular guitars with slick production to propel you into a dancefloor frenzy."

Title Note

Cobra Starship: Ryland Blackinton (guitar); Elisa Schwartz (guitar synthesizer); Alex Suarez (electric bass); Nate Navarro (drums).

Additional personnel include: Maja Ivarsson (vocals); Joe Trohman, Nick Wheeler (guitar).

Cobra Starship's Gabe Saporta first grabbed the world's attention with his catchy, tongue-in-cheek movie theme song, "Snakes on a Plane (Bring It)" (and its attendant video's all-indie-star cast), and then enjoyed some notice for his Gwen Stefani pastiche "Hollaback Boy." Here, he enlists the Ivy League's guitarist Ryland Blackinton and bassist Alex Suarez for a full-length album of exuberant and clever pop-punk built on brash guitars, funny hipster-skewering lyrics, and a confident vocal swagger that both apes and mocks emo conventions. While snark-infested tunes like "Pop-Punk is Sooooo 2005" and "The Kids are all F*cked Up" are clearly meant to be goofy, "The Ballad of Big Poppa and Diamond Girl," with its appealing electro-pop feel and a stirring melody, indicates a serious songwriting talent underneath the blankets of irony.
