Great reviews. Here´s some - so far:

”Zooparty, Swedens finest”
Record collector (UK)

”If you could bottle this shit and sell it you would be rich”
Peacedogman. com (USA)

"There's no standout track on this CD simply because all 12 tracks scream quality. If you love punk rock you really need to check this band out."
Gravyzine (USA)

"I become so fucking happy when I hear this type of punkrock which have so much melodies as you almost “die”.
Punkfanzine Skrutt (SWEDEN)

“I played it again, and again and yet again so I am pretty damn sure that once you pick it up you will have the same problem… you won’t stop being able to play it.”
Mass Movement Magazine (UK)

“It fucking rocks”
Punk Rock Radio (USA)

“They mean it, maaaan and they are keeping it real without sounding nostalgic.”
Big takeover (USA)

“Their sound though undeniably their own reflects a very 70's punk feel and is both catchy and melodic while still maintaining a vicious bite. I mean these guys actually SOUND like a punk rock band that’s formed in 1977 Sweden and not like a band that formed in 2005”
Terminal Boredom (USA)

”Zooparty, Swedens Sex Pistols”
Punkblog (FRANCE)

"An album and a band sure to go down in history. Welcome the great Zooparty!".
Punkrock, hardcore and skamusic resource n review (USA)

”What is great about them is their ability to write a good rock song with excellent harmony and then speed it up a notch or two to make it a touch more ummm frantic.
Peacedogman. com (USA)

"This album will stay in the recordplayer"
Denimzine (SWEDEN)

"Zooparty is the kind of band that dance on their neighbours grave when they complained that the music was to loud".
Mindview.be (BELGIUM/HOLLAND)

”This is a very good, modern sounding punk rock album, with similarities to Goldblade. ”
God save the Sex Pistols (UK)

"The Zooparty song "Give it up" is one of the best songs of 2008"
Flashback from the future at Delta FM 105.3 FM (HOLLAND)

“Very good powerpop”
Groove (Sweden)

”The best punk rock record since enternity”
Amazon. dk (GERMANY)

”Listen to The Race Has Begun, Give It Up, The Fuse, Remember To Forget, and Crime Scene Instigators, all great slices of tuneful punk rock. I hope they enjoy some well earned success.”
God save the Sex Pistols (UK)

“Entertaining punk rock”
Rocktribune (Holland)

A variety of classic punk sounds, from songs inspired by the Boys and Professionals (“The Race Has Begun,” “This Time Around”) to harder-edged rock ‘n roll to fast ‘n snappy compositions—“Remember To Forget” and the album’s standout, “Crime Scene Instigators,” fall into the latter category. Glen Matlock from the Pistols/Rich Kids shows up on one song and Brian James from the Damned on a pair but, in all honesty, this band doesn’t need any “star power. ” If anything, those are the less memorable songs here. This trio have an ingratiating loud and brash style.
SUBURBAN VOICE BLOG (USA)

“The songs caught my ear so I pressed “repeat” and after running through it all again pressed “repeat” again and so it went for an hour. At the end, one thing stuck in my head “hmmm sounds like 1976 all over again”
Glitzine (UK)

“A mix of the Sex Pistols, Sham 69, and Turbonegro. Guest appearances by Brian James and Glen Matlock drive home the sound. This is done well and does punk out."
Maximum Rocknroll (USA)

“High energy punk rock”
The HV Scene (USA)

“English punk rock with winks to the Sex Pistols”
Dreun.be (Belgium)

Yet another band from Sweden. When will this little country run dry? Here we have a solid album of bold, soaring punk rock with a decidedly melodic bent. Zooparty is a new band, but it's members are veterans of the Swedish underground punk. They were fortunate enough to recruit both Brian James (The Damned) and Glen Matlock (Sex Pistols) to participate on this, their first album, on both guitar and production duties (the first time they've worked together since Iggy Pop's New Values tour in 1979, and the first time they've worked on a studio project together). Not surprisingly, Zooparty have a markedly Damned/Pistols/Professionals sound with big, anthemic melodies and catchy, infectious songs.



Established in 2006

Influences by Ramones, Sex Pistols, Damned, Iggy Pop

Youngest member born 1969
