Upploppet to release debut album “Road Runner” in April
Upploppet is the latest addition to the scandirock Mount Rushmore, with influences hailing from titans such as Gluecifer, MC5, Union Carbide Productions and many more.
Road Runner is the debut album by Gothenburg, Sweden’s Upploppet. A perfect mix between punk and rock, this electrifying 10 track studio recorded release pays homage to the old punk and rock ‘n’ roll legends while at the same time embracing the new. Upploppet injects a vibrant and youthful energy into their performance resulting in a release that’s equal parts fresh and vintage sounding. Filled to the brim with fast paced, guitar-driven tracks, Road Runner is an 28 minute minute, hard hitting explosion that is destined please the rock-yearning ears of any fan of Turbonegro, The Sonics, Gluecifer, The Hellacopters, and New Bomb Turks, and other high octane acts.

Road Runner was recorded at Welfare Sounds. The album is produced, recorded, and mixed by Per Stålberg (Division of Laura Lee, Pablo Matisse) and Pontus Robertsson. Mastered by Hans Olsson Brookes (Bombus, Spiders, Graveyard, Blues Pills) in Svenska Grammofonstudion. Road Runner is released by The Sign Records on vinyl and digital formats.
Upploppet is the latest addition to the scandirock Mount Rushmore, with influences hailing from titans such as Gluecifer, MC5, Union Carbide Productions and many more. This just goes to show you that this five-piece stomps all over rock’n’roll history with their own twist. The music represents the dangerous side of rock. With no prisoners being held, a raw attitude and a live show like no other, Upploppet is pulling the torch from the fists of the old geezer’s that once held it.
The band has already gone through the DIY process of recording several EPs in their rehearsal space on the outskirts of Hogsbo, Gothenburg. Their 2022 self-release You Wish This Was Live (mixed at Sunlight Studios by Tomas Skogsberg) sent them right into their local rock scene. The band had already visited the outskirts of Europe before having released a full-length LP. Now they’re planning their next step in taking over planet Earth. The Sign Records felt the noise of the group while other oblivious labels stayed in the dark and took them under their wings. With their debut studio album Road Runner, recorded in Welfare Studios and released by The Sign Records, the band shows once again that they are evolving by getting better, faster and stronger as a unit. Everyone, put your seatbelts on.
