Household Name Records News Update

 

HOUSEHOLD NAME WELCOME ZATOPEKS!



 
ZATOPEKS are coming for you!!!


 


It's been a long time coming but we are super excited to bring you the latest UK signing to Household Name Records - London's self styled Buddy Holly's grandchildren -
ZATOPEKS!!!

We've been big fans of ZATOPEKS (Will DeNiro/Sebby Zatopek/Spider/Sammie the Giant/ Pete Sematary) since the release of their debut album "Ain't Nobody Left But Us" on Stardumb Records in Netherlands in 2005.

So we are stoked to be the first UK label to give the guys a widespread release with their new album - "Damn Fool Music" when it hits the shelves on November 12th 2007.

If you are new to ZATOPEKS prepare yourself for a pure pop-punkrock experience!

Influences from the Ramones and the Clash, 50's and 60's pop bands like Buddy Holly, the Beach Boys and the Shangri-Las, to folk music like Bob Dylan and Tom Waits has helped the band create a diverse and multi-layered sound.
But what sets ZATOPEKS apart is a unique songwriting style that is at once uplifting, reflective, humorous and often educational - this band have the whole package, so step up to embrace one of the complete experiences you will have from a new UK punk album in 2007!

ZATOPEKS have great reputation for their riotous live shows - most often demonstrated across mainland Europe and the and have just finished a tour that took them from Spain to Denmark. The band play a few dates in the UK this autumn and if you can get to a show....see them... if you come away disappointed...you may actually be dead....
