Introducing new punk rock supergroup ‘Ultrabomb’
Written by Johnson Stephen on March 24, 2022
UltraBomb have now arrived bringing together three iconic musicians from the cream of punk rock.
On bass is the legend that is Greg Norton, once the driving force behind one of the most influential bands to emerge from the American punk scene, Hüsker Dü.
Next up is the indefatigable singer-guitarist Finny McConnell, a name you’ll recognise from thirty years as the frontman of the Canadian Irish folk-punk sensation The Mahones.
Completing the trio is the drumming powerhouse Jamie Oliver, having served well over fifteen years in the seminal British punk band UK Subs as well as shorter stints with the likes of SNFU among others.
UltraBomb formed in July 2021 and just two months later they travelled from their respective homes in the US, Canada and the UK to record their killer debut album ‘Time To Burn’ in Berlin, Germany.
With a DIY ethic and a love of classic punk, the band wrote and recorded the ten-track LP in just four days. It’s set to be released May 27th via UltraBomb Records.
