I Set My Friends on Fire
I Set My Friends On Fire is an American punk rock duo composed of Nabil Moo ( vocals) and Matt Mihanna (vocals, programming). The duo first made themselves known on MySpace, where their rendition of Soulja Boy's "Crank Dat" (entitled "Crank Dat Calvary Boy") received more than one million plays. Nonetheless, the duo's MySpace page was removed three times because MySpace police had assumed that the duo were using software to increase the number of plays.
They then signed to Epitaph Records, who released their debut album You Can't Spell Slaughter Without Laughter on October 7. The album received a half-star rating out of five from Slant reviewer Nate Adams, who said "[It's] high in the running for worst album of the year…The music aims for brutality and melody, but misses the mark entirely on both counts." Matthew Hadley of the Brock Press, however, gave the album a more favorable review, calling it "a genuine release from a genre-bending duo trying to create something new and fresh in an increasingly tiring genre."
