Information - BTCP: Pom Poko
Brighten The Corners Presents Pom Poko on Sunday 20th October at St Stephen’s Church.
Pom Poko return with their third album Champion due out 16th August via Bella Union. Having last month shared the album’s title track “Champion”, and following their recent sold-out UK tour, today Pom Poko share their irresistibly catchy new single, “Growing Story”, from this highly-anticipated LP.
Pom Poko are growing up. On Champion, a monumental slice of reflective and life-affirming post-punk, vocalist/lyricist Ragnhild Fangel Jamtveit, bassist Jonas Krøvel, guitarist Martin Miguel Almagro Tonne, and drummer Ola Djupvik are the closest they’ve ever been, both personally and in terms of their hermetically tight four-piece rock instrumentation. When most bands call each other “family”, it’s a bit of a cliché—but with Pom Poko, after years of touring the four corners of the world and instituting a stringently democratic songwriting process, they really have evolved into one highly-synchronized unit, whose mission is to stay as true to their artistic values as possible while continuing to explore the farthest reaches of their slightly chaotic, always exhilarating sound.
