THE BUMPS review in ART ROCKER magazine!!! *****
Posted in The Bumps on December 7, 2010 by deathpoprecordsOh yeah! First review for THE BUMPS in ARTROCKER MAG!
There is a curious space in B-movie culture that The Bumps inhabit, and loosely speaking it’s in the same territory as Quentin Tarantino’s “Death Proof”. This EP springs a million bubblegum pop culture references to mind, from Scooby Doo to the Texas Chainsaw Massacre – all compressed into a slab of plastic vinyl boogie. Not many bands could write songs like “Heroin Girl” (“I don’t wanna live with a heroin girl”) while provoking both smirks of amusement and foot tappings. Meanwhile, “I’m A Creepy Guy” is the Ed Wood of pop songs, mixing up surf pop, crap UFO noises and T.Rex guitar solos. Groovesome.

THE BUMPS – BUMPS START E.P. – - 4 mind blowing bubblegum anthems!
Like Dr. Frankengoof, The Scummy Mummy or even the mysterious finger probing around inside your sister’s doll’s house – The Bumps are both an enigma and an unstoppable force of creepiness.
The bubblegum flavour of their music only serves to confuse the senses and mask the ridiculous truth about their world. Theirs is a world of girl group ritual, crazy golf and midnight mind games.
Generously, DEATH POP RECORDS have been granted brief access to this world via Wonka-like circumstances and allowed inside the jewelled inner chamber of The Bumps’ pop pyramid
This important new release from DEATH POP RECORDS offers you the chance to sample just a handful
of these riches.
Cherish them while you can…
