POPES OF CHILLITOWN are a six piece Dub/Punk band from London.
Blending genres and each of the members' influences makes for a unique sound and a breath of fresh air from generic bands that make generic music for fear of punters not "getting it". A typical POPES OF CHILLITOWN show boasts soaring vocals, orgasmic guitars, sexy sax solos, banging Ska beats and chunky basslines.
Their debut 4 track EP 'BUY ONE GET ONE FREE', (8/10 Rock Sound) released through Evil Uncle Records and was both a celebration of the band's sound, and a critique on the branded, monitored world we live in. Songs such as the title track and 'End 'Em All' denounce the advertising world for persuading their customers that their life is not complete without cheaper car insurance or that extra blade on their razor. Artwork was provided by Linda Joy of cult contemporary British arthouse La Boca (Muse, SMD).
In July/August 2010 Popes of Chillitown toured the UK with Truebeat, and are planning a UK and Europe tour for mid 2011. They are also currently recording tracks for their debut album and filmed a high production promo video for lead track 'I See Dub People', produced by Sentinel Productions
