How do you know the band Last Nights Vice? Maybe you caught them at a recent Pointfest. Maybe you have seen their giant posters plastered on utility boxes at stoplights in town. Maybe you’ve caught them on the radio or seen their latest video. Either way, Last Nights Vice is in your face or at least trying to be. Their latest full-length record is entitled Perfect Little Noise and if you’re in the mood to groove, this may very well be the album to do it to. If you’re like me, you’re digging a lot of dance rock bands like We Are Scientists, The Killers, Chromeo, Noisettes, etc. These bands are blending indie rock stylings with upbeat dance and some alternative elements. Last Nights Vice is doing something similar to that although with less indie influence and more modern rock and even some punk slipped in.

I enjoyed listening to Perfect Little Noise. It’s one of those albums that is admirably put together and produced and you can tell that the band really cared about the record they were making, which is rare sometimes in the St. Louis music scene. In addition, Last Nights Vice is contributing to the whole dance rock sound which is not a genre that has a lot of presence in STL, though I hope that will change soon. This is a band that I had previously only heard minimal material from but am now a for sure fan. Combined with LNV’s tireless promotions, aggressive work ethic and ability to write catchy songs that overall have a fresh approach, Perfect Little Noise could, in actuality, turn out to make quite a big noise.
