Apocalypse Pop, waiting for the apocalypse to...drop.
Suspect Parts are the brainchild of three exiled Americans and one Brit who managed to tame their inner demons with buzzsaw punk/power pop, a candy floss meets razorblade concoction that goes down surprisingly smooth. Ex and current members of bands like The Briefs, Clorox Girls, Ripchord and Red Dons; they are Suspect, they come from Suspect Parts, but these four maniacs together constitute the makeup of the apocalypse pop movement.
Combining 60's pop and bubblegum with late 70's California beach punk, Suspect Parts have something brewing that can't be ignored. The Seeds, the Kinks, Wire, and the Buzzcocks can be heard, as well as a little Star Spangles or Rezillos, a little Protex or Undertones, but with a modern touch. Backward looking but forward thinking indie pop with a punk edge.
Suspect Parts have released four 7" singles worldwide on indie labels like Deranged (Fucked Up, Tranzmitors), No Front Teeth (Cute Lepers, Disco Lepers), Taken By Surprise (Observers, The Cribs), Hovercraft (Cafeteria Dance Fever, Poison Idea), and House Party (Statues, Yeah Yeah Yeahs.)
Apocalypse Pop. MGMT or Ramones? Kings of Leon or New York Dolls? When oil runs out a major line is going to be drawn. Which side are you on? Which tribe are you willing to die for?
