Pathetic Use of Potential or PUP, is a very loud, punk indie rock band that consists of four childhood friends. They’re located in Toronto, Ontario, Canada and are made up of Zack Mykula on drums, Nestor Chumak on bass, and both Steve Sladkowski and Stefan Babcock on guitar. They used to be called Topanga (BMW reference) but have recently changed it. Their album has the right amount of anger and angst with some catch pop hooks like “Reservoir” and “Guilt Trip”, and will literally rock your socks off! Their self-titled album “PUP” was self-released and recorded back in 2013 online and that’s how they were noticed by Hollerado within a couple of days. PUP have opened for Hollerado, Zolas, Tokyo Police Club and Fucked Up and will be participating in this year’s Vans Warped Tour, so make sure you check out their set, especially if you’re going to the Toronto date! They will be performing back at their hometown and the show is set to be highly anticipated.
