Zatopeks are a British pop punk band who formed in the United Kingdom in 2001; several band members played together in the band called 3½" Floppy founded in 1999 at Birmingham University. They released their first album (Ain't Nobody Left But Us, 2005) on Stardumb Records, and their sophomore effort (Damn Fool Music, 2007) on Household Name Records in the United Kingdom, and Insubordination Records in the US. They have toured all over Europe. Their sound blends Lookout! Records style pop punk with the music of Buddy Holly.[1][2] They are also often compared to the Buzzcocks add The Undertones.[3][4] After having seen them performing live, Lookout! Records founder Larry Livermore called them "one of the best bands in the world" [5]
