Just reminiscing one of their old shows as Topanga at a place called the Rockpile. I went to originally see one of my friends other bands and Topanga was opening for them. The guys came on stage wasted as fuck with neon glow stick glasses. Literally burst out laughing. The songs were so good but they just kept falling over laughing and fucking up the songs. Knew I had to follow them and so happy for them now.
to all hoping, i had the great pleasure of talking to Stephan years ago about this EP. He said it wont find the time of day, simply because it doesnt represent pup for who they are now. He actually gave me a link to a few songs off of this ep, namely sick n cold and fogo island. He stressed to me that he did not want to find this online. The only reason they changed to PUP was because Disney released a movie named Topanga.
If I may ask, this is my first time hearing about why they changed their name and am confused. if Disney made a movie named Topanga too did that happen before or after PUP named themselves? or is there some other reason why they had to do it?
@@ob3sepotatoe110 It's actually not a movie. Topanga is the name of a character from Boy Meets World. They named the band after her bc Stefan and I think the other guys from the band had a crush on her when they were younger. The series was kinda old so they didn't cared but then Disney announced Girl Meets World and Topanga would appear again so they changed the name to PUP, because according to Stefan grandmother, the band was a "Pathetic Use of Potential". It's all on Wikipedia.
I hope PUP has so many more hidden gems like this that will all surface one day. Hopefully they release some of it themselves! I would LOVE to have a CD of this. The difference in sound in lionheart, mabu, and back against the wall sound awesome! So many good songs I wish get more popular.
On the topic of hidden gems and if i am tracking right, they have that one "unreleased" track that shipped with their last zine, and then there was that new song they played in some concerts right before corona shut everything down. Oh, and they dropped a "live from quarantine"
Holy fucking guacamole dudes, where the fuck has this been all my life?? I've been listening to them for like the better half of a decade now and I never found this?!?! I'm fucking glad I found it now.
You talkin about Whiskey and Water or The Shield? Cause The Shield is like bordering on bluegrass during the uptempo part, it's awesome! Whichever one you meant, I'll say good lookin out son - they're such a complex band as influences and inspirations go, it's friggin awesome!
This version of Mabu is incredible
what is this a crossover episode?
Jays video coming down the pipe?
Morbid stuff only just came out out and I’m super thirsty for new stuff so I’m so glad I stumbled across this

@@ob3sepotatoe110 so it happened before they were pup. so they were topanga when the movie came out, and didn’t want to be associated!
@@surfg0th450 Ohhh that makes a lot more sense. thanks!

This is by far one of the best demos ever made.
Thank god for Japan
whoa, mabu
Really cool to hear how the song evolved!
I really like this version of mabu not gonna lie
I love how the voice of Stefan just became more agnsty with the years
It's been 8 years since the release of this album, and I just got addicted to it now.
Fogo Island is by far my favourite song on this
Best 25 minutes I've had in a long time
100% if you just found this demo, have a kickass day, you just got mad lucky.
can't believe it took me this long to listen to this! It's fun to listen to this right after morbid stuff and see how they've developed
This is the equivalent to finding new PUP for me and holy fuck does that make today a very good day
Making the ultimate PUP/Topanga playlist, check er' out
Oh my gosh. They need to bring these old songs back!!!!!
favorite Mabu version ever
I wish they would record the shield again such an awesome song thank you for uploading the album
Holy fucking guacamole dudes, where the fuck has this been all my life?? I've been listening to them for like the better half of a decade now and I never found this?!?! I'm fucking glad I found it now.
Sick & Cold is one of the best songs by Topanga/Pup PERIOD. Don't @ me.
we need an official release of fogo island
マジか、topanga時代に日本でアルバム出てたんかよ笑 激アツすぎるわ
Love it!
back in this rabbit hole and couldn't be happier
HOW AM I ONLY JUST FINDING THIS OMGGGG ABSOLUTE FIRE 🔥
OFFICIAL RELEASE WHEN? 😭
still such a classic
WTF! PUP do more country style songs damn! 14:07 - So dope!
We have the opening to scorpion hill I guess, haha
I wish I could download "the shield" on Spotify
a straight up country song in there for good measure, I dig it it

its between oceans or sick and cold for favorite song on this EP, I LOVE PUP LOL
I keep getting oldeeeerrr
yes yes yes :)
Wish they’d release these tracks
Gonna get this album cover as a tattoo one day
I love this. The chorus in Oceans sounds very blink 182-ish to me
hearing mabu as a ska song is insane and exiting and so weird idek
every song including the alternate versions of mabu back against the wall and lionheart are good as fuck i wish there was an official release
Holy shit
Is the car on the cover art Mabu?
yeah looks like it
Have they released that first song ? I really vibed with it
They need to put Oceans on Apple Music bro it’s too good

drive.google.com/drive/mobile/folders/1-pwOM1G9VP1SOTOxXTqttts8dwvQ9Ev7?

Dude
Where can I download this album?
I literally can't wait for a download, so I'm just screencapping and keeping it for safekeeping
Legally? Probably nowhere, but you can always just download it from TH-cam with some app or program
More like Caterday am I right?
I fucking love the folk music shield.
