About Future Punx, PUJOL


It may come as a surprise that a band called Future Punx is so indebted to the past. And the present for that matter. But it shouldn't. Future Punx make little distinction between past, present and future; rather this New York City outfit recognizes three dimensions to a greater musical whole, gleaning equal influence from each. The past year has seen the Punx become one of the Big Apple's best live bands, stealing the show from headliners and locals alike. Now for the first time, the band has a physical artifact to mark their place in music history/future. On this double A side (because let's face it, both songs are hits) FuturePunx make their mark on 2014 AD. The empire built by synth punk, new-wave and no-wave is the ancestral point of origin for Future Punx' "Post-Wave". But as Horselover Fat would declare in Philip K. Dick's epic "Valis", "the empire never ended".


Daniel Pujol write poetry/prose, makes albums, and performs music. His band is called PUJOL. PUJOL is a Southern Gothic rock band from Nashville, TN. The debut record is called REUNITED STATES OF BEING. Its a directors cut. The second album is called KLUDGE. New stuff is in the works and PUJOL is touring around. Working it on out. Come out and see a show, these people did, and you'll never believe what happens next:

"Daniel Pujol makes a thoughtful and contained breed of punk rock. It doesn't pretend to be revolutionary, but it's still powerful and intellectually stimulating." -VICE

"Self-styled Southern-fried country punk. He has a wiry, nasal voice, and his live shows are refreshingly raucous affairs." -The New Yorker

"PUJOL's rousing but laid-back sensibility, and hearkens back to Exile on Main St.-era Rolling Stones with its bluesy guitars and loud chorus." -Consequence of Sound
