Formed by ‘Indie Zelig’ Philip King (Felt, Lush, The Jesus And Mary Chain etc etc) Population : 5 are an Anglo-Portuguese group based in Porto who make playful dystopian rock n roll that thumbs its nose at contemporary life. Their debut self titled album was recorded old school on analogue 8 track in mono by Nuno Riviera at Bronca Studios in Porto.

Population : 5’s songs critique Elon Musk’s SpaceX satellite internet constellation on Caravan Of Satellites “Tesla, Google, Amazon/Soon there’ll be no stars to look upon. Just those fuckin’ satellites/The shimmering lights of industry”, social media on I Don’t Share “I don’t share no eyewear, Tupperware, underwear”, the filthy rich on Jet Liner “From Paris to New York/I always took the Concorde/Now I’ll swim if I must/But I’ll never fly low cost” –being alienated in the modern world – on I’m Lost “I’m lost and helpless/Helpless like a child” – and the day to day struggle to just get by – on When The Sun Comes Up At Night. “Days are long – and life is short/ When you’re not buying, you’re being bought.”
