Partygoing is the third studio album by American indie pop band Future Bible Heroes. Future Bible Heroes member and lead songwriter Stephin Merritt was inspired by The B-52's' 1981 album Party Mix! to create Partygoing, conceived as "a party album that only just happens to be largely about drunk suicide, aging, death, loss, and despair."
All songs written by Stephin Merritt and Christopher Ewen.
