They released several eps & singles, but only one full studio album. Sadly, when finishing up their second album, which is said to have cost about $ 200 000, their record label Almo Sounds went down, leaving "LP 2" unreleased.
In 2007 the Trumfio brothers reunited and started to work on the Pulsars again, do gigs and promised to release a new record soon!
Tunnel Song
Pulsars Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
pittsburgh has a tunnel through a mountain
tunnels are what we like
tunnels can be dark or bright
and now we're going through that tunnel
talk radio is fizzing out
well don't forget a compass and a shovel
'cause if you dig too deep
you might miss by ten feet
new york has a real cool tunnel
the holland tunnel is just like a funnel
tunnels are what we like
all the tunnels are out of sight
and now we're going through that tunnel
talk radio is fizzing out
so you say so you say you wanna build a
so you say so you say you wanna build a
and now we're going through that tunnel
talk radio is fizzing out
The lyrics of "Tunnel Song" by Pulsars praise the coolness of tunnels and how they can be both dark and bright. The song's first verse refers to Pittsburgh's tunnel through a mountain, while the second verse mentions the Holland Tunnel in New York. The bridge section is a warning to those who want to build their own tunnel, emphasizing the need for a compass and a shovel so as not to dig too deep and miss the target.
However, the lyrics can also be interpreted more metaphorically. Tunnels can represent the journey that one goes through in life, with the dark and bright moments representing the highs and lows. The bridge section about building one's own tunnel can represent the desire to create one's own path in life and the need for guidance to avoid getting lost.
Overall, "Tunnel Song" is a upbeat and fun song that celebrates the unique beauty and wonder of tunnels, while also encouraging listeners to stay focused on their goals.

It sounds more like new wave 80s. Love it. I've been discovering music from the 70s and 80s before I seen this video on MTV. That guy in a car, he was in music videos of Radio Head and Depeche Mode.
