5.0 out of 5 stars Unpretentious Fun
I'm really getting a kick out of the folks panning this stuff. I guess unless a song is written as a tuneless dirge intoning some really, really meaningful...something....the self-involved yuppies out there just can't relate. If your name is Lance...you drive a Beemer...and you actually know people with names like Buffy...this AIN'T for you.
If, on the other hand,...

3.0 out of 5 stars Hair metal...for the new millenium?
Andrew WK's new single Party Hard is either a work of genius, or complete and utter crap. It's that kind of single, it's that kind of artist.

What is this? Well, after watching the video and hearing this piece I guess you'd call it some kind of new (nu?) hair metal. Big, dumb power chords, a lot of hair and headbanging, big loud drums, dumb lyrics, etc., etc...

So...

If, on the other hand, you think red meat, cigarettes and bourbon should be mandatory....and can remember when bands simply liked to have fun.....you will understand.
Dated? Sure. But powerful and catchy.
Check out the review in April's Maxim.

5.0 out of 5 stars Saviors of music? Not quite. But very cool., February 26, 2002

This review is from: Party Hard / Make Sex / Violent Life (Audio CD)
I really don't get what everyones' problem with this song is. They aren't the saviors of music, but they're someone who is out to have a good time. I see "Party Hard" as just a song to bang your head to, it's just a rockin' good time! In a way I guess they ARE saviors in a sense, because they differ with two things that most rock groups always have/do these days: they don't have a DJ and trying to make their music sound like fxcking rap music, and they're not whining about some old "tough time" they had in their life.
It's just a fun, rockin' song and it deserves a listen if you haven't already heard it. It's actually pretty catchy...

So why fault it for what it is? Why bother? Doesn't strike me as if Mr. WK set out to split the atom or anything, so give the man credit for producing a new, stoopid, loud, idiotic party anthem. And for better or worse, I see this song being played many years from now in many, many parties...Whether Andrew WK completely disappears or not after this, who knows. But Party Hard just may be able to infect millions...

5.0 out of 5 stars YAYER!! The Thrashening!!!, December 5, 2001
This review is from: Party Hard / Make Sex / Violent Life (Audio CD)
Andrew WK's "Party Hard" RULES. It does not SERVE in the slightest, with huge Riffage and Berserker-metal thrashing madness. We've been waiting ten years for rock to receive another wake-up call since Kurt Cobain gave us "...Teen Spirit". Here it is, laying the smackdown on y'all. I... LIKE IT!!!

2.0 out of 5 stars If this is the savior of music then consider me an atheist, January 3, 2002
This review is from: Party Hard / Make Sex / Violent Life (Audio CD)
What's the deal with the UK's recent obsession with American redneck culture?? To compare "Party Hard" with Nirvana is the most noxiously inaccurate ridiculousness I've experienced in a LONG time. This band is a joke, whether they intend to be or not. The video is at least worth a laugh though, once you get over the initial slack-jawed reaction of horror that everyone I know had when they first saw it. 1 star if they mean it, 3 stars if this is a "Spinal Tap"-style jab at everything that's wrong with the world, and I REALLY hope it's a joke.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's one of those really cool songs, really rocking., December 28, 2001
This review is from: Party Hard / Make Sex / Violent Life (Audio CD)
We've got Eminem's "The way I am", we got Afroman's "Because I got high". Now here's "Party Hard" by Andrew WK. I saw the video for the first time when I was in Leeds, England. And the guitar riffs caught my attention. This is a wake-up call. This is an anthem. You like a song because it catches you. I like this song for that reason. You'd like "Besame Mucho" by Diana Krall if it caught your attention. There's always something good in store that we just need to take the time to discover.

1.0 out of 5 stars You're kidding...right?!, March 16, 2002
This review is from: Party Hard / Make Sex / Violent Life (Audio CD)
Wow. This is really awful. Reminds me of the Reagan era. I don't know what else to say.

No...wait; yes I do. Andrew W.K. MAY be making this music in earnest, and make no mistake that this is PAARrty music, but it is terribly boring party music. Full of bombast, but it doesn't stick and it won't last. I think back to some great dancing/drinking/sexy music, and this don't doesn't hold up under their grooviness. Think of Jerry Lee Lewis, the Meters, Jackson Five, The Cars, Prince, KISS, Funkadelic, even the Bee Gees...will you remember these Andrew WK songs in light of these others? I'm betting not. Then again, if the sonic equilvalent of Mc Donalds is what you are into (read: filling, but ultimately empty), this may be your thing.

1.0 out of 5 stars Complete Rubbish, December 5, 2001

This review is from: Party Hard / Make Sex / Violent Life (Audio CD)
This song is a complete joke,it is not even up to the standard of being an anthem.How can you abuse the guitar so much,use it in a disgrace and give it a bad name.This song is lacking in tune and melody.The repetitive chords are simple and don't sound very good.The bass and drumming are boring and the singing is just a joke.The video for this song isn't even worth watching.I certainly hope Andrew W.K. released this song as a joke and their other songs on the album are up to standard.
