The F-Ups is a four piece pop punk band coming from Rochester, Minnesota: influenced by the likes of NOFX, The Vandals, Blink182 and Green Day, this band releases a major label debut album that brings me back to 1994, when pop punk bands were coming out from everywhere after the great success of “Dookie”. This time it’s not difference with THE F-UPS, as they mix pop punk music with catchy choruses, easy lyrics that could be written by a high school kid speaking of adolescents, rebellion, sexual experimentation, dealing with parents who don’t understand and so much more: songs like “I Don’t Know”, “Crack Ho”, “Screw You” and “Lazy Generation” show all the will of Travis and Co. to make their skills for writing easy melodies enjoyable to everyone and this self titled disc is all about this: having fun!
