Would It Kill You?

Would It Kill You? is the second studio album by Hellogoodbye. It was released on November 9, 2010. "When We First Met", the album's lead single, was released for free download on September 5, 2009. The album was produced by Forrest Kline, the frontman for the group. Would It Kill You? was released four years after the band's break-through record Zombies! Aliens! Vampires! Dinosaurs!; the delay was largely due to a lawsuit between the band and its then-current label Drive-Thru Records. Once the lawsuit was settled, the Hellogoodbye was released from their contract and released Would It Kill You? independently. Musically, the album features heavy use of real instruments, in contrast to the band's previous efforts, which relied on computerized effects like auto-tune, and keyboards. Lyrically, the album delves into many issues surrounding romance. Would It Kill You? was met with largely positive reviews, with many critics applauding the band's change in direction and its musical maturation. Financed by the band themselves and released on their very own Wasted Summer label, the album peaked at number 104 on the Billboard 200, where it remained for one week.
