== Biography ==
The Doomsville Boys were a trio and released an EP in 1989 containing six songs. The band changed its name to Pogo Pops in 1990 after Domenic O'Fahey joined. Pogo Pops is often considered the band that defined the Bergen Wave, followed by artists like Kings of Convenience and Röyksopp. Led by Frank Hammersland, the band released four albums in the 1990s, all of them dominated by Hammersland's melodious pop rock. The band was well received by the critics, but only attained moderate commercial success, and Hammersland dissolved the band in 1996. Hammersland released a solo album which was also very well received by critics but didn't sell very well, before he started the band Popium with several musician friends from Bergen. Popium continued the pop rock style of Pogo Pops.〔
Pogo Pops was reunited in 2006 for a series of concerts and a compilation album. On 14 September 2009, Pogo pops released their new album ''Where the action is'' at pogopops.com. They also released an outtakes album containing 11 previously unreleased songs as well as a digital version of their ''Doomsville boys'' EP from 1989. During 2010, Pogo Pops played several concerts, including the opening of Rockheim, Norway's national museum for rock and pop music. Pogo pops released their sixth studio album, titled ''Darling Emm, Northern Girl'' (Doomsville records/VME), August 2012.〔
