As always, we decided to do our own thing. We’re just so over the same
old tired riffs and worn-out stoner vibes, like a pair of Birkenstocks at an
indie concert, and let’s not even start on those “super interesting” lyrics
about how to smoke weed (seriously, tell us more!). So here we are at a
crossroad: should we just follow the crowd and do what everyone else is
doing, or should we put in the hard work to create something that actually
makes us happy while we play it? Well, here’s Melting Pop! It’s not stoner,
it’s not garage, it’s not punk, it’s not psych, it’s not even a traditional
album. It’s melting, a blend of FVZZ POPVLI saying “screw the labels”
and just going with the flow, all natural, like grown-ups with no
preservatives.
Take “Temple of Doom,” for example. We love Indiana Jones, so we wrote
a track about Indy himself, fighting the bad guys and always coming out
on top. It fills us with hope for the world we live in, which could really use
some.

Then there’s “Telephone.” Man, these damn smartphones have us all
wrapped around them—they're our partners in fun and sadness, helping us
score dates and often doing way more than they were ever meant to. And
for the hungry souls, they can even double as warm plates!
Next up, we have “Salty Biscuits,” which is a made-up food that represents
what everyone’s searching for: booze, drugs, love, success, wealth. In the
end, it’s all pointless—the quest for perfection is always a dead end. So
why not let loose and get your eardrums fuzzed out? It’s danceable and
even features four bars of cowbell for the enthusiasts!

We close Side A with “Erotik Fuel P.I.M.P.” This one’s based on a sadly
true story that happened at a gas station in Italy, we will not say which
company—just the main colors: blue and orange. We see it as a love story
told by the protagonist himself. A lonely love story, sure, but passionate
like any respectable romance. Let’s not judge; maybe we just don’t get it.
Better to fill up, pay and move on.

Side B kicks off with “Kommando,” inspired by the action movie of the
same name featuring good ol’ Arnold S. (we threw in the K to play cool
and to avoid legal issues). We’re really attached to this track since it was
the first one written for Melting Pop. The final guitar solo was probably
the most fun to record—like a battle between good and evil.
“Let’s throw in a doom track!” So we did! With “Ouija,” we’re calling up
the trapped spirits to find out why it’s such a mess down here while they’re
living the dream with no traffic jams up there. Maybe there really is a God
deciding who stays and who gets a vacation in the afterlife.
Next is “Cop Sacher,” possibly our favorite title. The combo of cop and
cake is already funny, and of course, there are kicks and punches involved,
like in any good showdown. No offense to anyone in law enforcement, but
let’s be real—you’re not winning any popularity contests, especially when
you abuse your badge. In the chaos, no one really wins or loses, but hey, at
least we fought for a good cause!

We wrap up this wild ride with “The Knight,” a key figure in our cultural
development. We can’t name names for marketing reasons, but let’s just
say he did a lot for our beloved Italy—and for himself, too. Now he’s
gone, leaving a huge void and a lot of trauma to sort through. If you want
to know who it is, slide into our DMs!
Hope this little rundown gives you a glimpse into what went through our
heads while making Melting Pop. You might’ve noticed we talked about a
lot of things but not much about the music itself. Not because what you
read is more important than what we played, but because we think it’s
pointless to describe something you can already experience through its
own language. And honestly, we’d rather you listen and form your own
ideas about what FVZZ POPVLI is all about in Melting Pop. Like it?

Let the Fvzz Live On!
