FORMER MEMBERS OF THE CHORDS RETURN WITH POPES NEW SINGLE AND SECOND ALBUM
When POPE released their critically acclaimed debut album in 2006, Grace of God, it was heralded as a welcome return to the music scene for former guitarist/songwriter Chris Pope and drummer Buddy Ascott of the mod-punk band The Chords.
For fans of The Chords it had been a 25 year-long wait to hear new material and after such a long time away it wasnt surprising to find that the prolific songwriter Pope had a lot to get off his chest. In doing so, he showed that hed lost none of his ability to apply an acerbic wit to his eagle-eyed observations, turning them into trademark razor sharp songs in the process.
Three years on since the release of Grace of God, POPE return with a brand new single, Loves Still Here, released on June 15th 2009 on Aspop Records. A lament to lost love, Loves Still Here precedes the release of POPEs second album, Tall Tales & Cheap Thrills, which is released on July 6th 2009 and features The Style Councils Mick Talbot on keyboards.
Available as a CD or digital download, Loves Still Here comes with the tracks music video DVD, plus a live version of The Last Thing I Ever Do, taken from the bands debut album, which briefly segues into its title track, Grace of God.
Press quotes for Grace of God:
MOJO magazine - Their debut reveals their protagonist hasnt mellowed a bit with age.- 4/5 stars
Uncut magazine - Grace of God is as savage as (Pete) Townshend with toothache...Ace.
Record Collector magazine - Loud, sweeping, righteous, and verging on the bombastic, its cut-the-crap stuff...its good to have him back.
Classic Rock magazine - The Former Chords beef up their mod revivalist roots with surly Godfathers-alike snottiness, urban Britrock laddishness and a la mode Doherty slovenliness 7/10
Scootering magazine - A modern masterpiece of great guitar music.
Chris Pope and Buddy Ascott will be available for interview. For further information please contact:
