UV POP were an early 80's post-punk group from the South Yorkshire region of England. Their sound was regionally bleak and they used staccato, angular guitars lines, with vocals ranged from spoken repeated mantras to whispered and shouted political poetics.

An excerpt from the album's liner notes penned by JP Shea helps explain the political climate during which this album was recorded: "In the 1980s there was nothing to smile about; nothing to smile for.

The person whom some called wrongly the iron lady brought vengeful spiteful selfishness and a narrow-minded outlook into all our lives.

Instead of love and respect there was: a three-day week, Miners strike, and The Falklands War.

The sound of UV POP has always been a sophisticated blend of sadness; with morose North Country sense and a humorous confrontational sensibility.

So, you might ask why o Songs Tomorrow'? There is the answer. UV POP and John White were as certain as anybody there was a strong possibility there might not be anything left with which to make a tomorrow..The fight back, the resistance came in the miners' strike, on the streets of north Ireland and in the sovereignty of popular culture.

And, there was plenty of that in Yorkshire and particularly in the southernmost parts of that region.

Working class poets had not all died with the Victorians. The Rough Trade charts for one week in 1982 tell a very interesting story.

Alongside acts of the caliber of Sisters of Mercy, Robert Wyatt, Sex Gang Children and Virgin Prunes are UV POP, their place well-earned."
