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 ↴
'Cause you're a superstar, baby, you're a superstar
'Cause you're a superstar, baby, to me
'Cause you're a superstar, I'll show you what you are
'Cause you're a superstar, baby, to me
Now I'm speechless
I cannot fall in line
Everyone's starin', but I'm not sharin', no sir, no way
I'll steal your love and take it from the world we below
So hold out your hand
'Cause you're a superstar, baby, you're a superstar
'Cause you're a superstar, baby, to me
Oh my god, what the fuck is this disco shit?
What happened to the dubstep!?
Looks like perfection wants your attention, so I say hey
I cannot fall in line
It's nice to meet ya, what a pretty little creature, tell me your name
I'll steal your love and take it from the world we below
So hold out your hand
'Cause you're a superstar, baby, you're a superstar
'Cause you're a superstar, baby, to me
Come give me love, don't give it up
Come give me everything I ever want and more

The lyrics of Knife Party's "Superstar" seem to be about a person who is perceived as a superstar by the singer. The chorus repeatedly emphasizes this title given to the person, complementing them by saying "baby, you're a superstar, to me." The singer is in disbelief that they are next to this person and intends to steal their love to take it away from the world below. The song seems to be primarily about admiration for this person.
The second verse begins with the singer questioning the music playing and expressing nostalgia for dubstep. The lyrics then continue in their admiration for the person they see as a superstar, complimenting them and attempting to get their attention. The song concludes with the repetition of the phrase "come give me love."
Overall, the lyrics are straightforward and seem to be about a person who is idolized by the singer. While some lines may be interpreted in different ways, the overall message is about having a strong affection for someone, elevating them above others through the title of "superstar."

I wish I had the vocal stems for this song. I'd make a dubstep version of it and make the voice say "OMG WTF is this dubstep shit? What happened to disco?"
