Midnight Boom is the third album by indie rock band The Kills, released on March 10, 2008, through Domino Records (March 17, 2008, in the United States). It was recorded in Benton Harbor, Michigan. The title refers to the moment when the moon comes up and everyone else goes to bed.
The album was preceded with a website, also titled Midnight Boom, dedicated to the videos and multi-tracks for "U.R.A. Fever", "Cheap and Cheerful" and "Last Day of Magic". Due to the album's unexpectedly high profile level, "Tape Song" and "Black Balloon" served as follow-up singles, and "Sour Cherry" became a cult hit due to its inclusion on the show Gossip Girl.[1]
