Biography
Unbelievable! They´re real...

Pandora Pop was exposed to massive amounts of radiation in a covert nuclear weapons test not too long ago. Since then she has gained the ability to telepathically communicate and to control hypersonic acoustic pressure. When night shrouds the city of Neo-Tokyo she frequents the concerts of her favorite band THE POPZILLAS or struggles for the good of humanity in her awesome adventures!

GirlPopMangaPunk is the compelling mixture of loud guitar chords, Lolita-like vocals, and melancholic harmonies. Its touching melodies and the voice of lead singer Yvy Pop can break one¹s heart. However, these four experienced musicians (SWOONS, BAM BAMS, PSYCHO GAMBOLA, HEROINES, SCHÜSSLER DÜ, and FAKED ID) aren¹t just out for funŠ now they¹ve got a mission!

THE POPZILLAS ARE:
YVY POP ­ The Popzilla¹s lead singer can melt hearts and bring forth light from the darkness.
SONIC DEATHMONKEY - This crazy, hoppin¹ guitar monster animates people to
ecstatic movements.
ROCK ZILLA - The band¹s bass player, he can cause earthquakes with his
top-secret weapon.
MR. BONSAI - When he gets behind the drums, this calm boy-next-door turns
into an animal!

WHAT THE PRESS HAS TO SAY...
³ ...three fantastic songs, that become clear through Yvy¹s charming voice.
Whoever hears her voice must surely listen to the Popzillas.
The quartet also has a mission to fulfill. The adventurous life of Pandora
Pop is recorded in verse form with sugarsweet melodies. If only the adventure would never end...² (Moloko Plus 01/2016)

³...but the Popzillas are too pop to sound like Mia and more punk than Wir sind Helden, so that they lay on a thin line in the middle much like Paula auf Speed. However, the Popzillas have something to offer apart from their music. They are also the favorite band of their specially-created manga in which Pandora Pop, the red-haired heroine, seeks to save the world. They¹ve already got their own fan base!² (Triggerfish.de, 01/2016)

³...so begin the superheroes¹ careers. (...) No wonder that the first maxi rocks and rolls like hell: dirty in sound, precise in rhythm and tremendously charming in song. (...) One can only hope that the mangas made in Germany will soon be available as an album or at least in comic-form; the quality of the art and stories is frankly top-notch!²  (Wildwechsel Magazin 01/2016)

³...Powerpop with scratchy guitar and clear vocals (...), as if it had leapt directly from the pages of a manga. The inevitable Asian feeling is in every songŠ the result: a successful view of the album, pop-punk in pure culture, and one is left anticipating which adventure Pandora Pop will tackle next.² (Southspace.com)
