* IfICantHaveYou: In "Internet Friends", the protagonist threatens to kill [[SecondPersonNarration you]], who she's been trying to win over, because you rejected her advances and blocked her on Facebook.

* PerpetualFrowner: As with Music/{{Pendulum}}, Rob Swire very rarely smiles, especially while performing.

** The "Centipede" intro could be interpreted as a TakeThat to Rob and Gareth's previous band, Music/{{Pendulum}}, as it discusses a centipede killing a tarantula (which is one of Pendulum's earlier songs.)

* DarkerAndEdgier: Knife Party tends to be very much this trope when compared to either [[Music/{{Pendulum}} Rob and Gareth's former band]], or other EDM artists. Even [[SurprisinglyGentleSong "Begin Again"]] sounds much gloomier than your average prog-house song.

Knife Party is an Australian ElectroHouse duo founded in 2011 by Music/{{Pendulum}} members Rob Swire and Gareth [=McGrillen=].

* PreAssKickingOneLiner: Invoked in the drop of the titular song off the Rage Valley EP.
--> "Now let tell you [[OhCrap something]] ''[[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch bitch!]]''"

* TheQuietOne / TheStoic: Rob, who is not only TheVoiceless above, but also very rarely changes his menacing facial expression while performing. Rumor has it that he only becomes more chatty in person when he's drunk.



* TakeThat: "[[https://soundcloud.com/robswire/internet #internet]]", an eight-second spoof that Rob released on his soundcloud specifically calling out "#selfie" by The Chainsmokers.

* TitledAfterTheSong: The duo derived their name from the Music/{{Deftones}} song "Knife Prty".
* [[WhenSheSmiles When He Smiles]]: Rob's PerpetualFrowner status inevitably leads to this trope, which is in play so hard that [=DJ=] photographer Rukes made his 1000th Instagram photo [[http://t.co/KeZ1QQAcaD one of Rob smiling]]. Cue [[{{Squee}} squeeing]].
** And in Ultra Live's 2015 recap video, one of the clips is of him smiling during the performance.
