Pom Poko
POM POKO are the Norwegian art-pop quartet you never knew you needed in your life. With their eclectic mix of punk attitude, whimsical melodies, and jaw-dropping technical skills, this band is a force to be reckoned with in the indie music scene.
Formed in Trondheim in 2016, POM POKO burst onto the scene with their debut album "Birthday" in 2019. Combining elements of math rock, post-punk, and synth-pop, their music is as unpredictable as it is infectious.
Lead vocalist Ragnhild Fange's quirky vocal delivery is reminiscent of Björk, while the band's intricate guitar work and frenetic rhythms bring to mind the likes of Battles and Deerhoof. But don't be fooled by their seemingly chaotic sound - POM POKO's musicianship is as tight as a drum.
Their live shows are nothing short of a spectacle, with Fange's boundless energy and wacky stage presence drawing comparisons to the legendary David Byrne. And let's not forget about their fashion sense - these guys can rock a pair of neon spandex like nobody's business.
With accolades from NME, BBC Radio 6, and a spot on the esteemed Pitchfork Festival lineup, it's safe to say that POM POKO are here to stay. So if you're looking for music that's equal parts cerebral and danceable, look no further than these Norwegian wunderkinds. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
