Redirected from Why Do Birds Sing). Why Do Birds Sing? is the fifth studio album by Violent Femmes, released on April 30, 1991.

The Violent Femmes' 1991 album, Why Do Birds Sing?, is the record that gave the band a new lease on life. After breaking up in 1987, the folk punk outfit reunited the following year and released 3, their 1989 full-length that returned to their early stripped-down sound. Sure, they had enjoyed heavy rotation on college radio and become underground sensations, but 11 years since they formed and on their second label, things were probably starting to look a little do-or-die. Like 3 before it, Birds is reminiscent of the younger Femmes

Two years after the release of their stripped-down and mellowed-out album 3, the Violent Femmes return with a disjointed and choppy but enjoyable album, Why Do Birds Sing?. Many songs seem to be written as a foil to the depressing sound on 3, forsaking cohesiveness and lyrical depth for upbeat ditties.

I'll never forget cruising in Diller's Beetle with Po; the three of us singing this entire album front to back with our whole hearts. It was never easy being real people in the middlanowhere, but good friends and honest music sure made it better.
