Issue #50- Cobra Starship- "Good Girls Go Bad"


From the ashes of one band comes the start of another.

You may have heard of Cobra Starship before. They did the song "Snakes on a Plane" for the movie... well... "Snakes on a Plane," and have been churning out some pretty good dance-rock since.

Cobra Startship was founded by former Midtown bassit/vocalist Gabe Saporta, and have cranked out three albums, 2006's "While The City Sleeps, We Rule The Streets," 2007's, "Viva La Cobra!" and their latest, 2009's "Hot Mess," to be released on August 11th. For the leadoff single, they team up with actress Leighton Meester, who can sing surprisingly well. The only negative on this song... the stupid cheerleader-esque breakdown in the middle. Gwen Stefani tried it as an entire song (I don't know what a Hollaback Girl is... I just know I want her dead), and failed miserably.

Either way.. enjoy today's entry... Cobra Starship featuring Leighton Meester, with "Good Girls Go Bad."
