To date, they have released five EPs: 100% No Modern Talking, Rage Valley, Haunted House, Trigger Warning, and Lost Souls EP. They have also collaborated with Swedish House Mafia on their single, Antidote.
Their debut studio album, Abandon Ship, was released in November of 2014. Abandon Ship saw a deviation in sound from the heavier dubstep sound Knife Party had become known for on their earlier EP's, incorporating elements of more mainstream electro house. Originally scheduled for 27th October, unforeseen circumstances caused the album's release to be pushed back to 24th November. However, an accidental iTunes leak on 7th November made it available for download more than two weeks early to those who had pre-ordered it.
In March of 2015, at Miami's Ultra Music Festival, they debuted three new tracks, including a collaboration with Tom Staar, and later teased at a collaboration featuring Tom Morello of Rage Against The Machine. On 24th July 2015, Knife Party announced via their official Twitter that fans could expect their next release, entitled Trigger Warning, to be released within the next 6-8 weeks. However, due to difficulties clearing samples, it was delayed until 20th November.

Knife Party Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And with this groove he made his move,
And it set our souls free.
House was a way of life,
And it made you reach out,
It raised your hands in the air to rejoice and sing a song of love,
Sing a song of peace
Sing a song of happiness.
And it shined on our souls,
Three o'clock in the mornin',
On and on and on and on and on.
The dance is in my heart!
The dance is in my heart!
The dance is in my heart!
The dance is in my heart!

Even though I love Pendulum, it is so annoying seeing the same conversation in every knife party song:
'When will you release the new Pendulum album?'
'They will not release any Pendulum album because they said they are no longer interesed in this band'
'But they said they will release a new album.'
'No'
'Yes'
'No'
'Yes'
blah blah blah
