PUP gain a level and unluck acheivement on lyric videos

This is Canadian punk rock band PUP.

Formed just a few years back in 2013, the band has made some noise with their one self-titled full length that came out on Royal Mountain Records.

10 tracks of hopped up angular and jagged punk rock back alley brawls. Six of those tracks have been given the video treatment, so there is a good amount to dive into for the uninitiated.

The band has managed to attract so much attention due in part to some bombastic live performances.

A highly anticipated second album is in the works, but a single called, “DVP” has been released… more as one of those ‘lyric videos’… but unlike any lyric video you have seen.

Gamer nerds… how many of these old-school titles can you name with only a few seconds of frame?

And to showcase the aforementioned live PUP attack, witness the video for, “Reservoir”.

And another one completely worth your time because the video is award worthy on the level of Stand By Me…

 

 

The band is on tour Spring and early summer of 2016…
