As the legend of Cobra Starship would have it, frontman Gabe Saporta fled into the comeupance of Arizona one day to find the dead on target meaning of his world away from his emo-rock band, Midtown. Saporta fagged years and nights musing life, mysterious lights forever plaguing the night sky above him. One distinct night, the lights became so spellbinding that Gabe finally became catatonic and started levitating into the melodic phrase. A snake River, however, all of a sudden came out of nowhere, bit his neck, and he awoke to notice a talk cobra from the future nursing his wounds. This oracular cobra went on to explicate the death of the world (no salvation for anyone) and that he was so sent to find Gabe to expose his life's design -- to ensure that man went extinct in style. And as the cobra revealed, Gabe must complete this "by instruction hipsters to not take themselves so seriously and by singing emo kids to diaphragm being pussies." Hence, Cobra Starship was innate...uh, back in New York.
Taking their describe from speech written on the backs of Saporta's pet time of origin jackets, the band burst onto the scene with the über-catchy dance-pop-rock of "Snakes on a Plane (Bring It)." The song -- which featured Saporta playacting aboard Maja Ivarsson (the Sounds), Travis McCoy (Gymnasium Class Heroes), and William Beckett (The Academy Is...) -- was the lead racetrack cancelled the remix-heavy soundtrack for August 2006's revulsion drollery, Snakes on a Plane, leading Samuel L. Jackson. Its video hit the MTV airwaves that July and featured cameos from Jackson and Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz. Meanwhile, Cobra Starship continued work on a uncut album of their own. The band gestural to Decaydance that like month and fatigued part of fall on tour with Gym Class Heroes. Spell the City Sleeps, We Rule the Streets stumble stores that October, and Saporta continued to go alongside new bandmates Elisa Schwartz (keytar), the Ivy League's Alex Suarez (bass) and Ryland Blackinton (guitar), and Armor for Sleep barrel technical school Nate Navarro (drums). Schwartz parted slipway with the band in early 2007 and was replaced by Victoria Asher, and the fresh lineup returned that fall for the liberation of ¡Viva la Cobra!
