PopiKoK is beat-driven guitar sex.
Biography
PopiKoK was formed through the genius insanity of singer/songwriter Michael Satro with only one thing in mind -- to create intelligent guitar driven music with cutting edge dance beats that you will FEEL.
Their songs ("Ultimatum" and "Your Eyes Burn") have appeared in the feature film Blast! (2005) and eleven of their tracks in FashionTV's episodic Shoot Me! (2005/2006). Along with having "Sister" win VH1's Song of The Year Award for the month of April (2005), their music have also been featured on Nic Harcourt's Morning Becomes Eclectic radio show on KCRW (Los Angeles) and have topped the charts on numerous indie music sites for weeks running.
Backed by Jesse Charland (bass), Dylan Charbeneau (keyboards/synth), Zoltron (guitars), and Stefano Trampetti (drums/percussion), they have played the House of Blues Sunset, The Whiskey, The Viper Room, Avalon Hollywood, Key Club, and almost all the other great hot spots in their hometown of Los Angeles.
Currently, PopiKoK is working to bring forth THE FIVE SENSES -- a monthly event that will bring back and combine the hands-on feel of a great concert and the awe-inspiring sensation of brilliant performance theatre into an experience that is beyond both.

Lyrics
Sister
Written By: Michael Satro
WAKE UP convince myself to straighten up
another coffee in the same cup
life still passing time..you know it's a crime
Empty. Missing pieces to a puzzle
staring through my soul into a muzzle
something to call mine...most will never find
Moving fast to increase the chances
Pocket full of hope while the world advances
Lock eyes with you
In the blink of an eye and a young girls sigh
theres something to touch but never to buy
must have you
oooH SISTER YOU GOTTA KEEP ON SHINnING ON ME
SISTER YOU GOTTA KEEP ON SHINnING ON ME
SISTER YOU GOTTA KEEP ON SHINnING ON ME
oooH SISTER YOU GOTTA KEEP ON SHINnING ON ME
Driving/ to keep my soul surviving
Oh one last chance for thriving..
Welcome stand in line...Next stop ill get mine
Never heard a word want or dream/perfect creation
or thats how it seems...WHO ARE YOU
ANXIETY IN THE EXPECTATIONS/NOW I RETREAT IN MY RESERVATIONS.. TOMORROW IS NEW
