Yum Yums, The
Poppin' Up Again
Poppin' Up Again is a perfect power pop record, and we would expect nothing more or less from the mighty Yum Yums." - Lord Rutledge "To absolutely no ones surprise, The Yum Yums have stuck to their A/B tested pop punk formula. The bands reservoir of effervescent charm appears limitless and fueled by a secret stash of bubblegum, sugary drinks, sweet harmonies, and lyrics inspired by clandestine readings of teenage diaries. The 14 songs invite spontaneous sing-alongs, complete with rich harmonies that are not just catchy but quickly become downright addictive." - Add To Want List "This is an all-time-great power pop band doing its thing as well as it has ever done it. If you like sugary melodies, crunching guitars, earworm hooks, and timeless lyrics about sweet girls, falling in love, and falling in love with sweet girls, Poppin' Up Again will take you to auditory heaven. If you want a master class on bubblegum power pop punk rock 'n' roll, school is in session, and your professor is Morten Henriksen!" - Faster And Louder The Yum Yums, the Norwegian ambassadors of power pop are back with their sixth album called "Poppin' Up Again". You put together the essential ingrediences of the music of the RAMONES, the REAL KIDS, the PLIMSOULS, the DEVIL DOGS, the early SWEET and the OHIO EXPRESS, the 6t's and the 7t's, bubblegum, glam and punk, pop and early rnr, of course. Morten Henriksen is the real Norwegian national treasure, a real rocknroll aficionado, and one of the best songwriters around, delivering catchy hi-energy, guitar-driven power-pop songs, complete with sugary multi-layered harmonies and lyrics with a lot of "BABY"s.
