The Party's Over (Murphy's Law album)

The Party's Over is the second full-length studio album by the New York hardcore punk band Murphy's Law. It was released in 1991 on Profile Records. The album represents a departure from the band's earlier, more raw and comedic sound, showcasing a more mature and arguably heavier musical style. While still retaining elements of their characteristic humor, The Party's Over tackles more serious themes and features more complex song structures compared to their self-titled debut. The lineup for this album featured Jimmy Gestapo on vocals, Pete Nice on guitar, Chuck Valle on bass, and Doug E. Beans on drums. The album is considered by many fans to be a transitional album in Murphy's Law's discography, bridging the gap between their initial hardcore sound and their later ska-influenced material. While not achieving the same widespread recognition as their debut, The Party's Over remains a notable release in their catalog.
