Cardiff’s enigmatic six-piece, Papa Jupe’s T.C. are back with their second EP, Jupe In The Flesh, releasing January 25th, 2025. Known for their electrifying blend of sleazy post-punk and surf rock, the band delivers a biting commentary on modern life, wrapped in gritty, high energy tracks. Their songs tackle themes of toxic masculinity, drinking culture, and the search for meaning in a dystopian world, all tied to the mythology of their spiritual figurehead, Papa Jupe.
The EP features standout tracks like ‘High Value Male,’ a razor-sharp critique of manosphere personalities, and ‘Course We’re Goin’ Out,’ a live favourite celebrating chaotic nights in Cardiff. Brilliantly produced by bassist Alex Miller, the project is a testament to the band’s sonic evolution, with seductive guitar riffs, pulsing drums, and textured synth work. The EP’s bold narrative invites listeners to ‘Join The Taurus,’ offering a tongue-in-cheek take on salvation through music.
To mark the release, Pape Jupe’s T.C. will play a sold-out show at Cardiff’s iconic City Arms pub, solidifying their reputation for unforgettable live performances. With a growing buzz in the UK and beyond, this EP promises to be a pivotal moment for the band. Don’t miss your chance to experience the chaos and charisma of Jupe In The Flesh.
