Luponero – “Dad Bod Rok God”

Since self-releasing the single earlier this summer Finnish hard rock trio Luponero has been making waves with their debut single “Dad Bod Rok God”, a catchy anthem celebrating the timeless allure of rocking dads. Infused with humour and an infectious energy, the song caught the ears of the labelhead at Icons Creating Evil Art, who recently signed the band and are now looking to (re-)launch the viral-ready single as a priority release. This release marks a significant milestone for the band (formerly known as Marco Luponero & The Loud Ones), “Dad Bod Rok God” represents their first offering under the new name Luponero, signalling a fresh chapter in their musical journey. Marco Luponero from the band comments:

Joining forces with Icons Creating Evil Art feels like the perfect alignment for Luponero. Their fearless spirit and dedication to pushing boundaries mirror the very core of what we stand for—raw, unapologetic music that reflects the chaos and beauty of modern life. We couldn’t be more excited to take this journey together, forging something rebellious and deeply meaningful.

The most beautiful and majestic song of the album is worthy of a music video which was filmed at the most stunning video location we’ve ever come across on our journey – at the breathtaking sceneries of Iceland!
