V/A - INTERNATIONAL POP OVERTHROW - Volume 14 (2011 edition)
The IPO CD is always a 3 CD set and this year features 67 total bands in the mix! It`s Volume 14 in the International Pop Overthrow series - always an event for the power pop fan!
Most past volumes are out of print and sold out - Volumes 10, 12 and 13 have limited stock available, presently and are on this site - don't wait too long! I just found a few more copies of IPO #5 so they are available now, too.
David Bash and his amazing labor of pop love travel the world now to bring the message of great music to not only the fans of power pop, but music fans at large; the ones who go `power pop?!?!` These festivals are done in Los Angeles, Liverpool, Boston, New York City, Chicago, Vancouver and Nashville and look out - more coming! Each year, when The International Pop Overthrow Festival comes to LA, David lets us press up a *limited* bunch of the CD to help make available to all the folks who can`t make it to LA. As usual there is a large mix of previously unreleased songs, rare songs and upcoming releases mixed in with previously available trax.

The Only Way To Discover New Bands!
Posted by anonymous last month
I'm a sucker for comps and I've been obsessive about picking up all the IPO comps over the years(though, I'm still trying to find #3 at a reasonable price - the older ones are quite rare and expensive now..). IPO #14, like all the previous ones, gathers up some of the best power pop bands and allows the listener a proper sampling of what's going on. Always some major revelations to be found and this one is no different...

A stunning compilation of music
Posted by Sam Price last month
All Fourteen volumes of the International Pop Overthrow compilation are stellar, and Vol. 14 is definitely one of the best, featuring pop bands from more than 10 countries displaying their wares. You won't find a compilation of this magnitude anywhere else. Kudos to David Bash for assembling the talent, and Bruce Brodeen of Pop Geek Heaven for releasing such a fine product!
