Just the Best Party
Just the Best Party is the second studio album by The World/Inferno Friendship Society. It was released on April 2, 2002 on Gern Blandsten Records. It is referred to by the band as 'Inferno #8', as it is the eighth release of new material by the band. The first six songs on the album originally appeared on the International Smashism! EP and two other songs, "I Wouldn't Want to Live in a World Without Grudges" and "All the World Is a Stage (Dive)", are re-recorded versions of songs that originally appeared on the "I Wouldn't Want to Live in a World Without Grudges" single.
The album includes a three-song cycle about love and loss in a temporary autonomous zone. The lyric pattern and subject matter of the song cycle are similar to The Wild Party.
