About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

Boys Night Out returns with an expanded form of the sound it debuted on the 2002 EP Broken Bones and Bloody Kisses. Make Yourself Sick (Ferret) initially paints the Canadian combo as a pop-punk band, with an upbeat pace and catchy tunes about soft-focus stuff like youthful love and heartbreak. However, the band also shares metalcore's love of jarring aesthetic shifts, not to mention screamo vocals. The result is a song like "I Got Punched in the Nose for Sticking My Face in Other People's Business" (only the first of many cheeky song titles), which begins as an exuberant Get Up Kids-style anthem full of giddy lead guitar and boyish lead vocals, but is periodically visited by the tortured, shrieking spirits of screamo. "First Time It Shouldn't Taste Like Blood," "Decent Human Beings," and "I Was the Devil for One Afternoon" all follow suit, tempering their rousing emo and slick punk revivalism with tooth-shattering yowls and severe sonic shifts. Tracks like "Anatomy of a Journey" and "Hold on Tightly, Let's Go Lightly" are even more ambitious, incorporating elements as disparate as drum programming, pious church organ, digital vocal tuning, and solemn choirs alongside the usual banshee screams and sweeping melody.

March 08, 2004: Boysnightout blew me away with the first album, although it was a little scrappy it took hold of me, this album appears to be more of a radio friendly attempt, however keeping it hard enough to make it not pop punk (thank god) my favourite song being The Anatomy of the Journey which has a bridge that reminds me of the first album, good overall ferret debut, I would have stuck with the way they where going on the song " a torrid love affair " from broken bones and bloody kisses

January 27, 2004: this cd was much better than the first one it shows more dying and yet keeps it kind of ok. Its even a little more emocore which is what i like.
