Having been compared to whatever noise it is that angry dinosaurs make, Norwich Alt-Rock band KunK make sounds that have been known to stop wild boar in their quest for flesh. Creating a sound that is "somewhere between the demented growl of Mclusky & the early Britrock might of 3 Colours Red" (Subba-Cultcha.com), KunK put on a live show that excites, tantalises and scares the crowd in equal measure. Their high energy gigs and fast growing reputation have earned them support slots with The Subways, Nine Black Alps, The Airborne Toxic Event, Baddies, and Electric Eel Shock amongst others.

KunK self-released their debut single “We’re Not Who You Think We Are” in May 2008, picking up regular airplay in the UK, US and beyond, with XFM's John Kennedy calling it “one of the finest releases of the year!”. Their follow up single 'No Way/Game Over' picked up where the bands debut left off with BBC Introducing's Huw Stephens and 6Music's Tom Robinson both championing the band, and more interest and radio play in the US leading to a number of KunK songs being used in MTV shows The Real World, Bad Girls Club and Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
