Party Boobytrap is an EP recorded by Tally Hall and released in April of 2003.

Overview

Party Boobytrap is Tally Hall's first release, produced in very small quantities to be sold at early live shows. It was recorded in the attic bedroom of Joe Hawley using a digital camcorder and edited together using Final Cut Pro.[1] All of the songs featured would later be released on Complete Demos, albeit in remixed form. A "partyboobytrap e.p. +1-1" was also released, containing the Super Mario Bros. Overworld theme in addition to the other tracks. This version has yet to surface online.[2]

The title was chosen because it was a palindrome, and would later be used as the name of a fictional rap group in the music video for Good Day.[3]

The only digital copy to surface is from Andrew Horowitz himself, who sent a fan a digital copy in the late 2010s. This includes an early spelling of Good Day, "Goodday". This copy is likely the same copy that was auctioned for Coz Baldwin in 2019.[4] A copy with different artwork would be given to Hidden In The Sand moderator Ruby Red in May 2024.[5][6]
