Album Notes

This summer the hottest beach accessory polaroid glasses. It's not an itsy bitsy yellow polka dot bikini, either. It's Hyperbubble's new summertime single "Better Set Your Phasers to Stun"!

"Phasers" is a Ramones-inspired jolt of beachpop, with guest vocals by Welsh bubblegum punk queen Helen Love, who also sang on Joey Ramone's solo album, "Don't Worry About Me". The song features a Moog lazer battle, go-go dancing robots, and layers of pulsing power pop riffs.

Fans of The Undertones, The Rezillos, The Beach Boys, The Archies, and yes, Frankie Avalon and Annete Funicello, have a reason to celebrate! The aliens are here to party. Surfs up...It's gonna be a hot one!




"Techno-bubblegum pop for robots and the kids who love them! It's like The Cars crashing into The Faint and taking them back in time to give them happy pills."

-Marcel Feldmar BIG TAKEOVER


"Peppy synth pop par excellence. Jess's delivery is the kind of witty ice-cool warmth that could almost be a solo cyborg Shangri-Las."

- Ned Raggett ALL MUSIC GUIDE


"Hyperbubble went ahead and proved that the breakneck pace of punk could be applied to straight-up synthpop. A fantastic fun listen."

- Mike Schiller POP MATTERS
