    We also love to party and this third effort from Cobra Starship screams 'party' right from blast off.
  2. All Music Guide

    Hot Mess is a complete success and shows that the band could possibly grow past the comedy and become something else entirely.
  3. Rolling Stone

    Sometimes the former Midtown singer's snark falls flat, as with the title 'Pete Wentz Is the Only Reason We're Famous' or the part where the singer brags about his ass. But Saporta does have some pop gifts, apparent on the disco 'Living in the Sky With Diamonds.'

    HOT MESS is one of Cobra Starship's best albums; it's fun, catchy and has heaps of songs that will just get stuck in your head. A fun and addicting album that never fails to enjoy it's listeners.… Expand
