Get Out Alive: The Last Type Story is the fourth album from The Speaking Canaries, a Pittsburgh-based indie rock band.

Critical reception

Reviewing the long version, Tiny Mix Tapes wrote that [Damon] Che's "guitar playing [is] the protagonist in this particular tale, employing everything from chaotic six-string torture, to hacking and jittery math-rock, and all the way to pinch harmonics and back again, almost to the point of note-per-minute showoffery." Rolling Stone praised the "napalm riffing and glass-spear harmonics that tell you exactly what Husker Du would have sounded like with Eddie Van Halen and J Mascis on four-handed guitar."
