Liverpool post-punk pioneers The Room present their third album 'Doom Pop!', released via 9x9 Records, as well as the video for the album focus track 'The Room'. Inspired by the strange days in we are living through, 'Doom Pop!' explores the rise of authoritarianism, disinformation, war and paranoia. But it equally draws inspiration from science fiction, horror, and cinematic liminal spaces.

Recorded and mixed at Ark Studios in Liverpool, this album was co-produced by Dave Jackson and Steve Powell (Michael Head & the Red Elastic Band, Autour De Lucie, Echo & The Bunnymen).

"We aimed at shorter, sharper, more pop-oriented songs than on our previous album 'The Telling', which was a continuous story told in eleven songs without repetition or distinct choruses. The 'pop' element mainly harks back to the roots of our music, updating our original spiky, post-punk independent sound with Ethan Kyme's keyboard stylings.
