The Pope
The Pope - Society of Friends (from Society of Friends)
Bass & drums duo The Pope hail from Los Angeles and like the best 2-man bands, sound bigger than they are. There is a very obvious heavy influence from Lightning Bolt, but tempered with many other influences. The vocals are similar to those of high-energy punk rockers Hot Snakes. The drums are “bash” oriented rather than the tight & complex style of Lightning Bolt. But the most important thing that the Pope bring is an undeniable groove. As noisy, fast and lo-fi as they are, they never loose the sense of swing that makes the hips shake.
