LIVE IN OSAKA, STICK WITH IT JAPAN TOUR 2008!
This girl-fronted Punk-Power-Pop combo from Barcelona have turned the independent pop scene upside down since they started as an anniversary present between Suzy Chain (vox) and BB Quattro (bass).
After a couple singles and a mini-CD (one of them collaborating with TV Smith from The Adverts and an EP placing the B-side to the first recording to ever join in the same band Tommy, Marky and CJ Ramone) the band toured non-stop not only in Spain but also in France, UK and Germany, pleasing the crowds with Suzy Chain's amazing front-woman skills and their hook-filled and well-crafted hi-energy pop songs.
Their first album, "Ready To Go!" (2004) got raving reviews all over the world and was licensed in Japan via Wizzard In Vinyl. During 2005 they embark on a 2 weeks japanese "Lipstick To Japan Tour", which confirmed their "pop idols" status in the land of rising sun, selling out two nights in Tokyo and receiving an almost beatlesque warm welcome. You can see it for yourself on their Lipstick To Japan video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vygzxCQHViU
This tour was followed by a compilation of all their singles, "The Singles" (2006), licensed in Germany with Screaming Apple, a record that kept them on the road again, playing two times at the legendary Cavern Club in Liverpool, where John Otway from the BBC included their show on his top 10 of the festival (out of 150 bands on the bill!).
Their new album has been produced by LA pop genius Robbie Rist (The Andersons, The Mockers, Wonderboy) and after all the time and efforts they are spending on it, it promises to be one of the best independent pop releases of the decade! Lindsay Hutton (The Next Big Thing) will be writing the liner notes, as he is constantly declaring his unconditional love for the band.
Now working as a four-piece band, but faster & louder than ever before, the band is following a plan to do 90 shows in 9 countries in 1 year.
So for any Ramones / Blondie / Beach Boys / Raspeberries fan, here's your favourite band for the year!
We listen to your album "Stick with it" over and over again. Especially, "DONNA DONNA" and "BECAUSE OF YOU" are very nice song! We hope to see you again and listen to your new album!!!
Thanks for adding me!!!! I am looking forward to see you guys in Japan and listening to your new songs next year! So let's keep in touch.... Take care and ciao!!!! xoxo

POPGUN (Noruega) www.myspace.com/popguninfo Brutal proyecto en solitario de Egil Stemkens (Yum Yums), los LEMONHEADS pasados de speed! Egil Stemkens es conocido por ser el bajista de The Yum Yums, tras unirse a la banda hace unos años y adquiriendo la merecida reputación de ser uno de los bajistas con más talento de toda la escena, como mínimo, europea. Popgun es su proyecto en solitario, con el que ha parido un segundo disco tan espectacular, "Manic Anti-Depressive" (Wild Punk) que no tuvimos otra opción que editarlo. Cocinado con una receta agridulce que mezcla una cucharada de Buzzcocks, otra de Teenage Fanclub, unas gotas de The Kinks, y todo espolvoreado con un toque de… Queens of the Stone Age! Bueno, casi podemos oír vuestras carcajadas con esta surrealista descripción, pero creernos cuando os decimos que es bastante precisa. Alguien dijo que sonaban a "los Lemonheads pasados de speed", y la verdad, no podríamos estar más de acuerdo. Sus canciones te pondrán las pilas un viernes noche, como "Fucked Up" o "Heart (Erratic Beating Of A)", aunque su verdadera belleza reside en su sabia forma de mezclar hits instantáneos con material más oscuro. Los Dandy Warhols matarían por haber escrito "Sting Me".
Hola, pasaba para informarte de que estoy organizando actuaciones en directo en un bar musical, todos los viernes vienen grupos a tocar al local, si estais interesados solo teneis que poneros en contacto conmigo y pedir fecha. Estamos consiguiendo poco a poco que los artistas tengan un sitio donde expresar su arte, ya que faltan estos lugares, no tenemos estilos determinados, solo queremos dar un espacio a la musica en directo. Si te puede interesar ponte en contacto conmigo, un saludo y gracias! Paco
